Enslaving a Highland Laird by Emilia C. Dunbar

The dangerous man in her dungeon is her only hope…

Although powerful, the McGavins have lost the war against their worst enemy, the Fergusons, as many of the McGavin forces were away. Now they will have to pay a terrible price, not only in money and land but in people as well, as ten men and ten women from the McGavin clan must become lifelong servants for the Ferguson clan.
To everyone’s surprise, Robert McGavin, the Laird’s son, has volunteered to be among the ill-fated sons and daughters! Laird McGavin does not even want to imagine having to lose his beloved son, but Robert’s bravery and sense of honor make him feel that he has to suffer next to his people. However, as soon as he arrives at the enemy’s home, he puts in motion his secret plan; the assassination of Laird Ferguson.

The Laird only has one daughter, the beautiful Ethel Ferguson, and with no male heir, chaos will prevail in the clan after his death. Yet, Ethel’s husband is on his way, and this marriage would make the Fergusons one of the most powerful clans in Scotland as her betrothed is a mighty English Lord. The only one who is unhappy with this match is Ethel, as the Englishman might be wealthy but he is very old and infamous for his violent character.

Robert would have never noticed Ethel, whom he considers his worst enemy, but it does not take long for him to end up in prison, and now she is the only one who can get him out of there. The lass approaches him in this time of need and offers to free him. Her demand in exchange for her help? Ethel asks him to ambush and send away her future husband.
Ethel is unaware of Robert’s plan and knows that her request is risky, but marrying the terrible English Lord is a fate worse than death, so she decides to take a chance. Robert has begun having feelings for the rebellious lass, so he intends to keep his promise, but he can not spare Ethel’s father’s life. The only way for him to survive is if the clans have peace, so Robert proposes to Ethel the unthinkable; to marry him, her worst enemy.The dangerous man in her dungeon is her only hope…
