Description:
A
successful literary agent, Leslie has no desire to be part of the
infamous connection between her Broun heritage and the MacLomain
clan. But Fate is finicky and determined to thrust her through time
into the path of the laird’s brother.
Bradon
MacLomain made a vow to save his sister. Unwavering, relentless, he
will travel the whole of Scotland to bring her home safely. When
sharp-tongued, strong willed, Leslie ends up on his venture, he’s
soon torn between his commitments and her distracting presence.
Passion flares. Sparks fly. Truths are revealed. Only a sweeping
journey into the rugged highlands will reveal if a modern day woman
and a medieval Scotsman can see through promises made in, Vow of the
Highlander.

Excerpt:
Only
five steps into the courtyard and already one clansman was circling
her, a flirtatious grin on his handsome face. Somehow it was all
infectious and as determined as she was to stay by McKayla’s side,
she soon found herself in the arms of first one then another
Scotsman. Some were her height, many taller, but none as tall as the
man who she eventually ended up dancing with.
“I
hear I had you worried.”
It
took everything she had to look into Bradon’s deep, green eyes. She
hated how aware of him she’d become. How her heart seemed to clench
a little too tightly. “Don’t overthink it.”
“Ah,
so I did have you worried. ‘Tis good,” he said softly. “Every
lad should have a wee bonnie lass or two to welcome him home after a
good battle.”
She
arched a brow and found it easier and easier by the moment to look at
him. “Or two?”
“Or
three even,” he replied easily, an irritating grin on his face.
“What
happened when you left us?” she asked, determined to steer the
conversation away from him thinking her an easy target.
“They
followed,” he said as if she should have that figured out. “And I
evaded.” He shrugged. “Then I killed a few.”
“Why
are you not covered in blood then?”
“Because
I’m not brutal.” His eyes dropped to her lips before returning to
her eyes. “‘Tis not a difficult thing to find water and bathe,
lass.”
He
did seem rather fresh…in more ways than one. “So will the
MacLeod’s be showing up at the MacLomain’s doorstep once more?”
His
hand slid lower down her back and he pulled her closer. “Nay,
lassie. ‘Tis time to relax.”
She
pushed him back a fraction and frowned. “I can relax just fine
without being up against you.”
“Can
you then?” But he didn’t let her go too far. His hand cupped the
side of her neck. “The muscles here.” His thumb ran around the
back, giving her shivers. “As well as the muscles here.” He
pressed slightly. “They are like stone.”
Her
eyes dropped to his strong neck then the wide chest covered by his
tunic. Being close to this man was a very bad idea. But for the life
of her she couldn’t pull away.
