Highland Tales of Shadows Books in Order
When Aleck Campbell decided to marry, he pictured a biddable wife, like most, not one running her own band of rebels!
Fierce lass, Fennella Mcpherson, is stealing from the wealthy to provide for her people, who have been weakened by the tyrannical ruling of her brother. Laird Mcpherson is cruel, but he is also powerful, so when he offers Fennella's hand to Aleck Campbell, he accepts.
Young and strong, Laird Aleck Campbell is a leader who will do anything to ensure a better future for his clan and, at first, sees this marriage as a dull duty. After meeting Fennella, though, he is pleasantly surprised not only by the beauty of his new bride but also by the strength of her character.
He tries to win her heart, but Fennella is suspicious of him as all the Lairds she knows are greedy and only care about power. Aleck tries to show her that he is different, but an unexpected event will destroy everything they had been building.
Aleck does not know that he is walking on thin ice, and without Fennella's trust, nothing can stop his descending into chaos.
