Can be read as a stand-alone novella or in series order.
Laird Bhaltair Ferguson needs a fortune fast to save his failing clan. His solution? Wed the legendary Mad MacKay Witch for her dowry. Sure, rumors claim she turns unwanted suitors into toads, but given the state of his crumbling keep it’s a chance he’s willing to take. What he discovers is far more than he bargained for.
Sìne MacKay is neither mad nor a witch, she is just a healer who lives near a haunted forest and occasionally hears voices in the strange mist. Who doesn’t? When a misunderstanding leads her into the arms of a fearsome Highland laird, Sìne will need to decide whether she’s willing to risk the truth for a chance at happiness.
But there are those who will stop at nothing to ensure the MacKay fortune never passes to another clan. Can Sìne and Bhaltair learn to trust one another before it’s too late?
