To Woo a Highland Warrior by Collette Cameron

He only meant to rescue her…instead, she saved him from himself.

He has no heart…
Since the tragic deaths of his wife and children, Liam MacKay, Baron Penderhaven, has fortified himself behind a carefully erected wall of indifference and aloofness. There, he doesn’t have to feel anything. He’s as dedicated to the prosperity and success of his feudal barony as he is to avoiding social gatherings and marriage-minded women. That is, until he unhesitatingly risks his life to save the alluring Emeline LeClaire, and the temptress utterly thwarts his well laid plans.

She has no hope…
Illegitimate and orphaned, Emeline LeClaire has lived in servitude to her strict spinster aunt her entire life. With no prospects, Emeline expects she’ll follow in her aunt’s footsteps and reluctantly settle into a lifetime of drudgery as a seamstress. Only, when she becomes the target of hired assassins and the riveting, oh so tantalizing Highlander Liam MacKay charges to her aid, she realizes she cannot settle for mediocre. She wants him, and sets out to heal his wounded soul and claim his broken heart.

After a flash flood strands them in a hunting lodge for several days, Liam and Emeline can no longer deny their mutual attraction. Even though he vows to find the man who wants her dead, he cannot relinquish his heart to her. The organ shattered years ago, leaving him an empty shell, incapable of feeling. Can Emeline tear down the barriers he’s erected and convince him to accept her love, or will the past that haunts him separate them forever?
