Her Scandalous Scot
(2023)(Highland Awakening)
(The second book in the Highland Knights series)A novel by Jennifer Haymore
The Highland Knights series continues as a tight-knit band of Scottish mercenaries make trouble on the mean streets of London...and under the sheets with England’s proper young women.
*This book was previously published under the title Highland Awakening, The Highland Knights, book 2, and is being reissued with a new cover and content changes.
The Warrior: As a Highland Knight sworn to protect the crown, Camden McLeod never expected to play bodyguard in a brothel—nor could he anticipate meeting a bright, innocent lass with lush lips and a secret he’s dying to uncover.
The Lady: As a clandestine author of racy romances, Lady Esme Hawkins goes to great lengths to protect her family’s honor. Which is why she carefully disguises herself before entering a notorious brothel to do research. But when Esme comes face-to-face with a brooding Scot, she can’t refuse a harmless kiss...a kiss that inflames desires ripped from the pages of her novels. Acting on them, however, would risk revealing Esme’s identity—and the fact that she’s about to become engaged to another man.
Cam wants Esme for his own. But to do so, he’ll need to give up his rakish ways, embrace his role as heir to the despicable Earl of Sutton, and snuff out a deadly threat to his brothers in arms.
By comparison, winning Esme away from the man who intends to marry her will be pure pleasure.
TW/CW: Sexual assault (described/occurs off-page), violence
Genre: Historical Romance
