Her Highland Defender by Barbara Bard

He is her last chance to escape a life of torment. She is the light amidst his life of darkness…As long as they are together, nothing can stand in their way.
Eamon Baird and his men are on a mission. As a valued member of his clan, he sets out to find the cult threatening his family and village and eliminate them before this deadly menace spreads upon his people.
Agatha Pickering has gone through too many hardships to believe in love or happiness. Being a maid and a prisoner of her fate for almost all her life has never allowed herself to hope for a different life
…until he comes her way.
When his search leads Eamon to a long-forgotten castle for clues, Agatha will be there and the desire stirring inside him will be too strong for him to ignore. And Agatha will find herself feeling hope again in the arms of the Highlander who swears to protect her at all costs.
But as the flames of their passion meet the destructive flames of their bloodthirsty enemy, Agatha and Eamon will have to take a final stand…or burn forever…
