My Steadfast Love by Melissa Limoges

Attending his mother’s wedding to their clan’s longtime ally is not Liam MacGregor’s notion of a grand occasion. Nor is her groom’s ridiculous pronouncement, naming Liam as his immediate successor. To worsen matters, Liam’s mother imparts a troubling secret she’s harbored for years which prompts Liam to question his very existence. To his chagrin, he finds himself thrust into a role not of his own choosing.

After her father’s untimely death and a plot to murder her younger brother, Venora MacNab flees her clan with her brother, Will, seeking refuge with Clan Fraser. For five years, Nora has safeguarded her and her brother’s privacy while living amongst their adopted clan. Unfortunately, the appointment of a new laird, coupled with a series of unsettling events, threatens to upset the safe, quiet life Nora’s built for herself and her brother.

Thrown together by circumstances out of their control, Liam and Nora forge a shaky alliance in the midst of treachery and murder plots as Liam learns to navigate his newfound responsibilities. During the course of events, the pair stumbles on to something else entirely. Something neither imagines possible—love.
