*Want a paperback copy? Go here: https://goo.gl/forms/lhJx5X63RTGG90T93 (The link is also on my profile)* Terrified of being sent off to marry a man who would only control her, Saeran Sinclair disguises her identity by posing as a male. Instead of being the renowned beauty that she really is, she must help her sister gain "The Lion" of the Highlands favor, even though the feat seems impossible, for every word and look coming from him shows just how feral the man really is. A deadly Highlander shouldn't be forced to marry-but that's exactly what's happening to Kane "The Lion" Shaw. With a new squire, a leper of a lady living in his keep, and his neighboring highlanders beginning to stir with unease, Kane has a lot on his plate. But a Highlander never surrenders...and ignores the odd feelings his squire stirs inside of him. When Saeran, posing as a squire, is forced to be around "The Lion", the roughest, meanest, most barbarian man she's ever met, she is sure her ruse is hanging by a thread. When he begins to suspect what she really is, she makes the most dangerous decision...and finds that this Highlanders touch makes it harder and harder to deny what is happening between them, even while danger wars around them. The complete version of this book is available on Amazon! Message me if you want a signed paperback!

"One night. That's all I want. I promise I won't expect anything more than what you offer." She murmured, pleadingly and reached back to the zipper. Her dress slipped down and pooled at her feet, exposing her sweet little body to me. Doing my absolute best to look away, I swallowed hard and shook my head. I needed to get her out of here and home in her own damn bed before I changed my fucking mind, plow through that little barrier that was keeping her innocent, and let her learn the hard way. "Damnit, Hart. Put your dress back on. I can't do this. I'm trying my best to stay out of trouble. You are trouble." "Please..." She begged quietly. "I won't be clingy. I won't say anything to anyone. No one will ever know. I promise." As she began to beg me, my eyes lifted to her and my mind began flipping through the excuses I could use to let her down gently. But when I caught a glimpse of her scantily clad body, I knew right then and there I was fucked. Utter perfection. Me being the reckless Burkhalter I was- I threw caution to the wind as soon as I saw flesh. Fuck my parents. Fuck hard work and responsibility. Fuck being the good son I was supposed to be. Tomorrow is another day. A new beginning. Tonight, she's mine. Arrogant and reckless Austin Burkhalter's life has been thrown off the track after being thrown in the drunk tank for the second time in less than a month. In order for him to get his precious lifestyle back, his parents are sending him to live and work on a farm in a small town in Mississippi where he must learn the definition of hard work and responsibility. Everything changes when he is faced with the beautiful and innocent southern belle Elizabeth Hart, the farmer's daughter. From the moment he meets her, he knows things are going downhill for the both of them. After one night of pure lust and pent-up desire, they are both faced with life-altering bittersweet betrayal.
