( 329 )

₹ 238.00

She will not be tamed…
Aislin Mac Cecht is not like other lassies. She prefers her bow, connecting with nature, and most importantly, her freedom. Marriage and children would only tie her down. No man could ever possibly accept her as she is, feral and stubborn to a fault, and she refuses to change for anyone, despite her family’s insistence that she settle down.

He would never dream of trying…
Alastar Mac Murray vowed to never get married. He much prefers to spend his nights with as many lassies as possible, living a life of ease and freedom, even if his easy smile and witty banter hide the painful shadows of his past. But when he first sees Aislin in her short hide dress, bow slung over her shoulder as she berates her brother, all his plans change. He will have Aislin Mac Cecht, and taming her is the last thing on his mind.

One reckless wager, the kiss of a lifetime, and an opportunity to secure the lass of his dreams has Alastar proposing a handfast to Aislin. She keeps her freedom and silences her family, and he wins the girl… for only one year and one day. She vows to leave when it’s over. He vows to keep her forever.

Can two people who value freedom over love find happiness in both?

No longer the spoiled young heiress she once was, Marjorie wishes only to lead a humble life, giving back to others. Though Marjorie longs for Sir Benjamin Keith, the knight who protected her last summer from her father, she’s faced enough rejection and humiliation to risk being made a fool of ever again, especially to a hardened man who detests her family. But when an invitation to Drum Castle for the Yuletide throws Sir Benjamin directly into her path, and beneath the mistletoe, Marjorie finds that avoiding love may be more challenging than she thought.

Sir Benjamin Keith has earned his scars on the battlefield, but no wound cut him deeper than losing his wife and son to a fire. They say time heals all wounds, but for Benjamin, his vows to love only one woman feel as fresh as the day he spoke them. When Benjamin arrives at Drum Castle with his laird’s entourage for the Yuletide, he is thrust into Marjorie’s presence once again, the one woman who ever tempted him to break his vow. Protecting his heart is as essential as protecting his laird, but Benjamin is on the cusp of losing the most crucial battle of his life: the battle against falling in love with Marjorie Douglas, his enemy’s daughter.

With a dose of Yuletide magic and some help from the Irvine clan, Benjamin and Marjorie may just discover that wounds of the past heal only once hope for the future blossoms, and what they’ve avoided for so long is precisely what they need.

Fresh out of a disastrous relationship, Monica Stevenson is ready to sow her wild oats and focus on her career as a chef in the city. With her twin brother marrying her best friend, love is in the air, but Monica wants nothing to do with that. However, her brother’s best friend may serve as a fun distraction for one night. Knowing he is off-limits only makes the forbidden fruit harder to resist.

As a member of high society and a business mogul, Christopher Farrington IV holds himself to the highest standards. His career consumes his world, and there is no time for love or relationships. Infrequent dates with fortune seekers to keep his mother happy are his only distraction, until the night Monica Stevenson, his best friend's fiery hot twin sister, tempts him into making the first uncalculated decision of his life.

But one night of passion turns both their worlds upside down when the consequences prove permanent. Neither of them is ready for a baby, and certainly not for the fallout. Tempers flare, passions burn, and emotions sizzle as Monica and Chris fight to gain the higher ground. But the more they fight, the further they may fall.

The line between love and hate is thin, and one wrong step could send them plummeting in either direction. But no matter which way they fall, their reality remains the same: a baby is on the way, and neither of them is prepared.
