Emma Prince

Claimed by the Bounty Hunter (Highland Bodyguards, Book 4) Emma Prince

To protect his cover, he must claim her as his captive. To save her own life, she must claim his heart... A gruesome siege destroys Kirk MacLeod's faith in the Scottish fight for independence. Robert the Bruce promises to release Kirk from his service if he completes one final assignment: infiltrate the deadly bounty hunter league that has thwarted the Scots' cause for years. Kirk plays the part of a cold-blooded mercenary almost too well. But when the league orders him to kidnap a beautiful Englishwoman, he must choose between following his mission and following his heart. Lillian Fitzhugh's late husband leaves her with a powerful secret-one that has men willing to capture and kill for it. When she's taken by Kirk, a ruthless Highland bounty hunter set to deliver her to the men who murdered her husband, she fears all is lost. But she senses that beneath her captor's hardened exterior lies the heart of an honorable man. To gain her freedom, she must unravel the truth of Kirk's identity. In doing so, she ensnares them both in a dangerous web of desire and secrets that may cost them both their lives.
