Laird of Storms

A storm, a legend, an undeniable passion... On the misty Hebridean Isle of Caransay, legend holds that when a kelpie, a sea-god who can take the form of a man, claims a bride on a sea rock, the isle will be blessed with great fortune. Honoring the ancient tradition one stormy night, Meg MacNeill expects nothing eventful-until she is swept into the arms of the handsome stranger who rises from the waves. When danger and passion both vanish with the dawn, Meg is left with a powerful memory-and a secret. Seven years later, Dougal Stewart returns to the isle where he was once a castaway in a storm. Now a brilliant engineer and deep-sea diver assigned to build a lighthouse on the very rock that changed his life, his only obstacle is the wealthy baroness who fiercely opposes his plans. Soon Dougal discovers that the proud baroness is the mysterious girl who once saved his life and stole his heart-and the golden-haired child by her side is his son. To protect her child and the people of her island from unwanted change, Meg must keep her secrets, knowing that Stewart once claimed her heart and soul, then betrayed her... Storms gather on sea and shore as renewed passion and responsibility collide-testing love, legend, and destiny...Tropes You'll Enjoy:Secret ChildSecond Chance RomanceStranded/Castaway HeroHidden Identity / Secret PastLegend & Folklore RomanceReunited LoversDuty vs. LoveNote: This book was previously published as Taming the Heiress and now has newly added content for readers to enjoy.
