Resisting the Highlander
Marian McBride
But moving to the castle means living under the same roof as Aidan MacLeod, a handsome highlander recently brought to the village to be her grandfather's right hand man. Although there's a mutual attraction, Bridget senses something sinister about the outlander, and if the rumors are true he's not to be trusted, especially with her heart.
As strange noises fill the night and then a frightening attack nearly sends her from the keep, Bridget considers returning home. Her grandfather needs her, but Aidan and the housekeeper, Besse, would surely rejoice at her departure, leaving them in a better position to inherit the property. If she is going to stay, Bridget must discover the source of the threat and whom she can trust.
Resisting the Highlander is a sweet romance with mystery elements set in the 19th century. It is appropriate for teens and adults.
