She'll put her life on the line for him…
When Akira Ayres finds the brawny soldier with a musket ball in his thigh, she has no qualms about doing whatever it takes to save his life. Even if it means fleeing across the country to tend his wounds while the English redcoats are closing in. Though she's never been in battle, Akira is just as fierce and brave as any of her Scottish kinsman. But even she's intimidated by the fearsome, brutally handsome Highlander who won't reveal his clan name.
Yet she can never know his true identity…
Geordie knows if Akira ever finds out he's really the Duke of Gordon, both her life and his will be forfeit in a heartbeat. The only way to keep the lass safe while his enemies are on the hunt is to make sure she's by his side day and night. But the longer he's with her, the harder it becomes to think of ever letting her go. Despite their differences in class, despite the danger, he will face down death itself to make her his.

An Excerpt from THE HIGHLAND DUKE –
Suddenly, all the wonderfully mouthwatering thoughts about food completely fled from Geordie’s mind. Moreover, every thought he’d ever had melted into oblivion—except one.
Perfection.
Bless the stars above, a pure goddess had replaced the Gypsy nymph, and in her place stood the most beautiful woman he’d ever cast his gaze upon. Completely naked, Akira waded in water up to her thighs. Standing before the waterfall, her movement as graceful as a swan, she cupped her hand under the cascade. She raised her chin and encouraged a stream to shower her skin, making her flesh glisten like pure amber.
He’d never seen a profile so alluring, so flawless. When she turned, a deep yearning clamped deep and low, and he leaned forward for a better glimpse. God’s bones, the woman’s breasts were fuller than he’d imagined, rounded and tipped with tantalizing rosebuds—flowers he wanted to caress between his fingers and suckle. His gaze trailing lower, he recalled how he could touch his thumbs when he placed his hands around her slender waist.
Aye, he wanted his hands there now.
