Bound by Duty Colin MacGregor was born to fight-for his beliefs, his king, and his familys honor. After years away from his beloved Scotland, he yearns to return to its lush, green hills-and he can, after he completes one final mission for the king. Sent to infiltrate a traitors home, Colin is determined to expose the treasonous plot and triumph on the battlefield . . . until he meets a sensual lass who tempts him towards other pursuits . . . . Betrayed by Passion Lady Gillian Dearly is no stranger to temptation. Cast out of her family for bearing an illegitimate child, shes now the ward of a barbarian conspiring against the king. Her only desire: freedom for her son and for herself at any cost, even if it means making a deal with the devil. Yet when a mysterious Highlander appears in their midst, his braw strength and smoldering gaze give her hope for a future beyond the castle walls-and promise a desire unlike any shes ever known. But passion comes at a price . . .
