\nABOUT THE BOOK\n
Never Cross a Highlander by Lisa Rayne |Click here to requ est or download
\nAILSA CONNERY has waited three long years to f inally escape her enslavement at Stirling Castle and reunite with her clan . But all her carefully laid plans are completely destroyed by the arrival of the fierce\, Highland warrior known as Dubh Mahoun\, the Black Devil\, who has plans of his own.
\nKALLUM MACNEILL&rsquo\;s fearsome reput ation has long allowed him to keep hidden his secret double life of freein g enslaved captives across the land. Only\, it works against him when he i nadvertently kidnaps a servant lass he assumed had gone astray from the gr oup he&rsquo\;d come to free. When he discovers she has plans to \;hea d in the opposite direction\, he can&rsquo\;t leave her to travel alone . . . or risk her exposing his true identity. Escorting a lone woman should be easy\, if only the beauty didn&rsquo\;t oppose him at every turn.
\nAs they make their way to the Highlands&mdash\;one feisty hellion fight ing the strong\, prideful devil&mdash\;their heated sparring leads to heat of a totally different kind. But the perils Kallum must face to get Ailsa home\, safely and untouched\, are nowhere near as dangerous as what lies in wait for them.
