Tamed By a Highland Widow by Ava McArthur

He took her husband’s clan. She is next.

Upper northern Scotland is not an easy place to live in, but after her marriage, Tovie must call the Highlands her home. While waiting for her husband to return from war, the lass spends most of her time getting used to the harsh people of her new clan. But the Laird she awaits is lying dead on a battlefield killed by his own brother!
Niall Fraser is the half-brother of Laird Wallace, and after defeating him at battle, he is on his way to claim control of the Wallace clan. Tovie freezes when she sees a rider covered in blood arriving at her castle to take it over and is sure that her life is about to end.
Luckily for her, Niall has been trying to find a place for his men to call home, and Tovie can help him gain the acceptance of her people. Thus, the recent widow finds herself forced to wed again, this time her late husband’s half-brother!
Tovie thought that no partner could be worse than her old one, but the warrior she is looking at is the coldest, most savage man she has ever seen. The lass wants to fight Niall with the help of her people, but this could lead to a new bloodshed. Can Tovie somehow make a Laird out of this brute, or is she and her clan doomed to a life of slavery to him?
