Even as she succumbs to her seductive husband’s sensual demands, Mary Kate vows never to give him her heart. She will belong to no man. But Adam burns with something deeper than desire.

When Highland heiress Ellen MacArther’s marriage plans are thwarted by a murder attempt, she has no choice but to beg the king for help. The cost for her urgent plea: to surrender her heritage and become a border lord’s bride. But the price to be paid for two strangers thrown together by fate is higher than imagined.

With her maid, Elanne, by her side, Alpin devises a plan to trick Malcom into marrying her so she can become the rightful owner of the plantation she has been living on for years. When the beautiful Alpin arrives on his doorstep declaring her land—and herself—are for his taking, Malcom is thrilled. At last, he has her under his thumb, right where he wants her, and can get retribution for the damage Alpin caused by a prank gone wrong when she was just six years old. As Malcom and Alpin plot their revenge on each other, each trying to claim what they believe they deserve, neither of them expects the flames of passion that ignite between them.

“An excellent tale of high adventure. Colorful characters come alive against a backdrop of espionage and intrigue (Sherrilyn Kenyon, #1 New York Times–bestselling author). Lady Miriam MacDonald comes to Scotland seeking peace between the Scots and the English—instead, she gets the admiration of two men. The kindly, awkward laird of Kildalton Castle becomes a trusted friend, but the dashing and mysterious Border Lord, disguised by midnight’s cloak, becomes much, much more. Behind Duncan Kerr’s disguise is a lifetime of anguish. Relinquishing his birthright as laird of Kildalton for the role of Border Lord could cost him his future, but Duncan knows that if his true identity is discovered by the beautiful Lady Miriam, he will lose the thing he holds most dear—her heart. “Arnette Lamb has a tremendous gift for writing genuine, warm, humorous, sensual love stories. Border Lord is stupendous!” —RT Book Reviews “Fun . . . Paced at breakneck speed. What makes this book special are the main characters . . . A strong liberated lady trying to negotiate for peace between the warring factions [and a hero that’s like] Zorro with a Scots burr.” —Romance Heart to Heart
