The Raider by Monica Mccarty

NATIONAL BESTSELLER . After consolidating his gains against the enemy English, King Robert the Bruce of Scotland sends his best soldiers to fortify the lawless borders. These legendary warriors of the Highland Guard let nothing come before king and country-except the calling of their heart.

Of all Bruce's elite warriors, Robert "Raider" Boyd is the most formidable. A true patriot whose bare hands are a deadly weapon, Robbie is the fierce enforcer of the Guard, and his hatred of the English has been honed to a razor-sharp edge. But vengeance proves bittersweet when his enemy's beautiful sister falls into his hands and he finds himself fighting temptation-a battle he badly wants to lose.

Lady Rosalin Clifford barely recognizes the rebel prisoner she saved from execution six years ago. Though her girlish ideals for fairness have matured into a passion for justice, Rosalin believes she betrayed her brother when she helped this dangerous man escape. Now her traitorous act has come back to haunt her. But she can't deny the longing this tormented warrior ignites in her, or deny the passion that turns sworn enemies into lovers. Is the gentle love of a true English Rose enough to free Scotland's most brutal warrior from a path of vengeance-before it's too late?

Monica McCarty is the bestselling author of the Highlander trilogy (Highlander Untamed, Highlander Unmasked, and Highlander Unchained), which includes Highlander Untamed, Highlander Unmasked, and Highlander Unchained). Her fascination in the Scottish clan system began in the most unusual of places: a Stanford Law School comparative legal history course. She discovered that her legal job and her husband's brief but pleasurable career as a professional baseball player were not exactly a match made in heaven after a brief but enjoyable spell practicing law. So McCarty ditched her legal arguments in favor of handsome alpha males in Scottish historical romances. She and her husband, as well as their two young children, live in the San Francisco Bay Area.
