Описание книги

From Heather Grothaus comes a tale of desire and deception in Scotland, AD 1076, and of the couple whose love could bring two clans together–or rip them apart. . . When Evelyn Godewin departs from her native England, she's looking for a new beginning. Yet fate has other plans in store for her when she's left stranded alone in an unforgiving highland forest, hunted by wolves as winter sets in. Determined to make the best of her surroundings, Evelyn seeks shelter in an abandoned cottage in the woods. But when Conall MacKerrick, a highland chief, bursts into the cottage and accuses her of trespassing, Evelyn tells him a lie she knows she will regret one day. Much to her surprise, she finds herself falling in love with the highlander. . . Conall MacKerrick believes his clan is cursed, and when he meets Evelyn he thinks he has found the key to lifting that curse. He must marry her–or at the least, get her with child. Seducing the striking beauty is the only way to save his people and his pride. Even as he begins to trust that she will heal not only his people's troubles, but his own heart, he discovers the secret that could destroy their newfound love. . . Prasie for The Warrior. . . "A spirited tale rich in intrigue, betrayal, ancient magic, and a love destined to overcome all odds." –Hannah Howell, New York Times bestselling author «Grothaus definitely has talent and a true feel for the era. . .she has what it takes to become a strong voice.» – Romantic Times

Отрывок из книги

MacKerrick gave a mighty tug on the cloak and Evelyn was jerked against his chest. In a blink, he had dropped his mouth to hers in a hard kiss, wrapping one long arm around her shoulders and pulling her to him.

Evelyn was so shocked that she froze, her very toes tingling from the sensation of MacKerrick’s warm, dry lips against hers. The scruff on his upper lip chafed at hers with a delicious prickle. He eased his head back and softened his mouth, kissing first her upper lip and then her lower, then sliding his tongue along the seam. He kissed her again gently, wetly, and Evelyn felt her knees go watery, her eyes close, her fingers uncurl.

Stay away. Mine.

Evelyn swallowed, her eyes flicking to the saddlebag still tethered to the dead horse. “I’ll not hurt you,” she said in a low, quavering voice. Her mind raced, and she decided quickly that the best course of action was to back a fair distance away and leave the wolf to its meal. The horse was of little use to her any matter, now. When the wolf had eaten its fill, Evelyn would return and retrieve the satchel.
