Entangled Scandalous
The Scottish Highlands, 1815
Lady Sybil Lacey is every
inch an English woman. She's horrified her best friend is wedding a barbarian Scot.
For aren't Scots naught but brutish,
whiskey-swilling lechers? So to find herself secretly attracted to the tall and
devastatingly handsome Scottish laird of Bedlay Castle
is quite disconcerting...
Liam MacBride is convinced
that English ladies are silly sassenachs who think of nothing but
social events and clothes. So why is he intensely drawn to Lady Sybil? All they
do is quarrel...until loathing turns into undeniable lust.
A tempestuous, fiery
romance between an English lady and a Scottish laird cannot end well.
He turned her in his
arms and lifted, reclaiming her lips. She automatically wrapped her legs around
his waist, pushing her dampening center to his warmth. Without loosening his
hold on her mouth, he strode to the fireplace where he gently settled her on
the soft carpet. He stretched out alongside her, running his palm over her
curves as she faced him.
As his eyes met hers,
she rested her palm against his cheek. “I’m afraid.”
“Ach, lass. Dinna fash
yerself. I will never hurt ye.”
She shook her head. “No.
I know you won’t hurt me. I’m afraid of what this means if we continue.”
“’Tis simple, darlin’,
and something we both kenned would happen. I want ye for my wife. I want to bed
ye every night for the rest of our lives, see yer wee body swell with my
bairn.”
“But I’m still not
sure,” she whispered. This was a serious step and the commitment she would be
making by allowing it to continue needed consideration. But her thinking was
muddled, all she could see was the man who made her insides melt, and all she
could think about was how much she wanted to experience what came next.
An inner voice warned
they weren’t even in a private place. Suppose someone walked in on them? Before
she could push him away, he said, “Let me convince ye.” He leaned over her on
his elbow and caressed her skin, watching her with half lidded eyes.
