Full Synopsis
The plan is simple:

1. Descend from the Highlands to face the aggravation of a London Season;

2. Foist his wild sister off on some gullible English lord;

3. Retreat before the ladies of the scandalized ton can get any ideas.

Determined to see his hellion of a sister wed, Highlander Alexander Waters is willing to face anything—even the English. He just didn't expect his own rough manners to cause such a riot . . . or for a blooming English rose to catch his eye.

Gently bred Catherine Middlebrook must find a respectable man to marry, or her family will be ruined. She won't allow herself to be distracted by Highland barbarians, no matter how her body may thrill whenever Alex is near.

Catherine wasn't part of the plan, but as their battle of wills escalates, Alex comes to realize this "proper" English girl is as wild as the Highlands themselves . . . and nothing will stop him from having her.

Contains mature themes.

"English's romantic novel includes engaging characters, a bit of mayhem and an overflow of passion and sexual tension." ---RT Book Reviews

"English's first Broadswords and Ballrooms Regency unites a Highlander and a proper English miss in a very improper romance. . . . The allure of Catherine and Alex's romance propels the novel forward as his promise to protect her opens up the possibility of their future together." ---Publishers Weekly
