The Saint by Monica Mccarty
Robert the Bruce consolidates lands and loyalty in a bold war for Scotland's independence, as his elite team of warriors, the Highland Guard, fight for king, country . . . and love.Magnus MacKay is the ultimate Highlander- tough, proud, able to master any terrain and to best his enemies. Called "the Saint" for his refusal to discuss women, as well as for his cool and steady leadership, Magnus hides a painful truth. It isn't virtue or piety that keeps him silent, but a wound of love and loss that cuts so deep he cannot bear to speak of it. But when the woman who refused him is betrothed to his friend and fellow Guardsman, Magnusis tested by love's battle cry.
A wild and innocent beauty, Helen chose family duty over her desire for Magnus. Now the anger in his eyes mirrors the tormented regret in her heart. But as deadly subterfuge stalks the King and his Guard, Helen vows to right her youthful mistakes with a woman's determined spirit. Still, Magnus harbors secrets and an iron will not to weaken to temptation-or heartache-again. But as danger looms, it's the kiss not of a saint, but of a sinner, that can save them.
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.
