Uncovering a web of lies and deceit, Laird Eòin (Owen) Douglas is made the ninth Earl of Douglas and third Earl of Avondale upon the death of his father William in 1452. He swore revenge on Clan Colville and vowed to prove their involvement in his father's suspicious death. 

Bitter over his circumstances, Eòin's life changes unexpectedly when he makes a drunken pact with a traveling stranger. Eòin unwittingly finds himself the guardian of an unusual woman named Niamh (Neev). 

Very much a woman of the modern-day, Naimh Colville is intelligent and self-reliant. She's also bored with the monotony of her quiet life. That is until a stranger appears one-night offering a solution that would solve all of her problems. From there, her world is turned upside down. She finds herself thrust into an unfamiliar world. At the heart of growing tensions between two ancient Scottish clans.(CC) Attrib. NonComm. ShareAlike

Their union has enraged William's mother into not just leaving King Uldard but also joining her brother; king Rowan. William's uncle sees this as an opportunity to break an alliance between the two realms with the goal to take the throne from his nephew. A once peaceful union between two kingdoms, has been broken. King Rowan is out to claim the kingdom he thinks should have befallen him after his father died, soon after his sister's hand was given to King Uldard many years ago. However, after hearing about his nephew's choice in bride, and seen with his own eyes how the girl had won not just the whelp's heart, but also the people's, Rowan fears that this queen will ruin his plans on merging the kingdoms. After hearing of a secret Jade is carrying, and that she is the only thing keeping William grounded and not his old hotheaded self, Rowan knows that the only way to overthrow the young king is to rob him of the only thing that brings him joy; his queen.

To succeed, Rowan must find a way to separate Jade from William before the usurper ruins his plan on uniting his own kingdom with his sister's.

Lady Eilean by eringeorgiana

The youngest child of the formidable and powerful MacLeod family of Ellesmure Island, Eilean is all but neglected in the rowdy environment of Stormway Castle - where a girl has not been born to the ruling family in centuries. Her seven older brothers dominate the time and attention of her parents, and her family seems utterly perplexed by what to do with a girl aside from waiting for her to grow up so she can get married. Bright and intelligent, Eilean's potential is only seen by her good friend, Alexander Leslie, a ward of the MacLeod's and a Lord from a neighboring kingdom. When Eilean's fathers and brothers are called off to war, the burden of running Stormway Castle and the surrounding estates falls into Eilean's unprepared hands. She struggles to maintain control of her family's lands as conflict, famine, and her own ignorance threaten to pull Ellesmure into ruin. When an old friend returns and provides Eilean with the support she desperately needs to survive, she finds herself torn between her heart's desires and her growing love of duty to the people of the island. A sweeping tale of love and self-reliance, Lady Eilean is an incredibly well-loved Wattpad book. Newly revised and rewritten, the novel now goes deeper into the story and the lives of its characters.

The Passion of London [Highlander's Love #1] by kitsumiekat

HIGHEST RANKING #6 in HISTORICAL FICTION! --- For all her life, Lady Evie Verrick had been regaled of tales of the Highlands from her Highland born and bred mother. She had grown up dreaming of chivalrous knights, sword-fighting, horse back riding. Tales of kin and family, loyalty and the warmth of a home. But being brought up in a traditional English household with a traditional father, her mother was the closest thing to the Highlands she could get. And when her mother died of pneumonia before her coming out, left to her father's care, Evie wants now, more then ever, to see the promised lands that she grew up with. --- Connor Gilroy had served as the first in command to the MacKenzie clan for as long as he could remember. He owed his loyalty to his best friend and brother in arms, Hammond MacKenzie, who had saved him from being skinned alive by English soldiers years ago, before the truce was signed between the two lands. Having no love lost for the country, Hammond would be the only person who could ever convince Connor to step foot back into English lands. His chief had recently received news on the death of the aunt he has never met, but Hammond was a man of his word, and he had promised his father he would care for all kin, regardless of who they were. But Connor never would've imagined that the cousin of his best friend would be a spirit of the flames. The way Evie took on life and all of its problems with a passion that ignited a hearth, would perhaps be the first time someone ever ignited more then just passion and desire within him.

Moonlight Kisses by chxrryskiwis

"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022
