Laird of Sighs

Genre: Historical

Their clans say they’re enemies, but their hearts disagree.

Now that his twin is blissfully married and starting a family, Anders Sutherland longs for the same happiness. Lasses have always favored him, but he refuses to settle for anything less than a love match. Winning a bride worth keeping for life is a challenge he will enjoy—if he survives. When a storm at sea spits Anders onto a hostile shore, he finds himself falling for the spirited lass who nurses him back to health.

The handsome stranger who shows up at Ailsa Sinclair’s clan stronghold captivates her. Is he friend or foe? Her parents and brother, the heir, are away, so the clan's safety depends on her ruling. Then the stranger collapses at the gate, making the decision for her. As she cares for his injuries, she learns why all the lasses sigh over him, and her spark of attraction to him grows into fevered longing.

But Ailsa soon discovers that no matter how he came to them, Highland hospitality be damned, she should never have allowed Anders inside her walls. Fearing betrayal, he has kept an important secret. He’s the son of an enemy laird. Will she fight to save the man who stole the heart she has so carefully guarded for years, or will she let her family toss him in the dungeon—or worse, back into the sea?

Highland Prodigy

Genre: Historical

Jamie Lathan is a formidable warrior, yet his life depends not only on his legendary prowess with a sword, but on keeping a dangerous secret. Like his mother, Jamie wields the power of healing magic. From childhood, he knew that those skills, often feared in a woman, would be condemned outright in a man. Discovery could mean imprisonment or death, but Jamie soon learns that denying his compulsion to heal is to deny the very core of himself.

Aftyn Keith desperately tries to fill the role of Healer after her mother dies unexpectedly. Still an apprentice, ill-prepared and hampered by her illegitimate birth, Aftyn knows that her best may not be enough to keep her place as a useful member of the clan. When a handsome Lathan warrior with healing skills far beyond her ken arrives and succeeds in saving his gravely injured kinsman, she begs him to teach her.

Jamie risks everything in choosing to trust Aftyn. But when she unwittingly betrays him, Aftyn is faced with a decision that may gain Jamie's freedom, but cost her the only home that she has ever known. In the face of her growing feelings for Jamie, she knows that either decision will leave her heart broken beyond any Healer's mending.

Waiting for a Forever Love

Genre: Contemporary

Successful businessman Holt Ridley doesn’t believe in curses, but when he inherits a great-aunt’s Long Island estate in early winter, tales of his family’s past tragedies begin to seem real— and threatening. Though he’s determined to sell everything and return to his life in California as quickly as possible, the stunning Scottish antiques expert hired to help him soon disrupts his plans. But she is just the touch of holiday cheer he needs. She challenges his every assumption— not only about the contents of the estate, and everything he was told about his family’s past, but about learning to love for a lifetime.

Antiques appraiser Caitlin Paterson discovers more than she expected among the contents she’s been hired to catalog in the grand manor. As she evaluates the estate’s furnishings, she uncovers several mysteries— including a disturbing one that drives her to solve it. The most intriguing is the mansion’s new owner, Holt Ridley. Holt is handsome, rich, and stubborn, just the sort of man she loves to spar with, but there’s also a sadness in him that she longs to heal.

Holt fears if their romance deepens, the centuries-old heartache that plagues his family will extend to him, and harm Caitlin, too. She is determined to help him find the happiness that has eluded him his entire life. He is torn between his desire for her and his need to protect her. Dare he let her close enough to risk everything? If they fail, his family history will be repeated, and neither of them will find a forever love.

Waiting for a Forever Love was previously published as When You Find Love, a finalist in the Short Contemporary category of the 2021 BookSellers’ Best Award. If you read the earlier book, I hope you will enjoy Caitlin Paterson's and Holt Ridley’s new, expanded romance. It has been rebranded, new scenes and details have been added, and the emotional story deepened. And as you can see, it has a gorgeous new cover.

Oh, and for his fans, Fergus, from Waiting for the Laird, the first book in this series, still makes an appearance at the end.

If the story is new to you, I hope you have a wonderful time. Read on!
