Highlander’s Adopted Daughter by Alisa Adams

He can help her find her father’s killer. Unless it is him.

Leana Campbell sheds a tear as the man who took her from the streets and raised her as his child is being buried, way before his time. Laird Campbell, her adoptive father, was brutally murdered, and as she sees the Highland soil cover his body, Leana’s heart desires only one thing; revenge.
Among the visitors, a huge Scott stands out. He is filled with battle scars and looks more like a bandit rather than a friend of a Laird. To Leana’s surprise, the strangely handsome man called Brodrick seeks a job at the Campbell estate, and Leana sees this as the perfect chance to find out his connection with her father.
Despite her efforts, Brodrick knows how to hide his secrets well, and Leana cannot extract anything from him. However, since he is an excellent warrior, Leana begs Brodrick to help her find the killers of her father or at least train her. Brodrick refuses right away and Leana wonders if this man could be one of the murderers who is back to take another life…
Thinking that it is reckless to cooperate with him, Leana runs away to find the killers on her own but Brodrick is one step ahead of her and stops her in the middle of the night! Apparently, this towering man knows way too much about her and her family and Leana must choose whether she can trust him to help her or if she can find the revenge she is looking for by killing him.
