MacLean's Passion: A Highland Pride Novel - Plot & Excerpts
Maggie was nearly jumping out of her skin while she waited for it. She was so full of anticipation that she was literally hopping from foot to foot. Colin shot her a small smile as he stood in front of Abbott’s door. Maggie could have sworn they stood there for an hour, but in reality they’d been in place only a few minutes. Duff yelled, and an immediate uproar ensued as the English soldiers began to awaken and scramble to the defensive. The sound was deafening even up here in the hallway. Colin moved swiftly, throwing open the door to the room they assumed Abbott was in, and charging through. Maggie had to restrain herself from going with him and protecting his back. It was amazing how much she worried about him now, less than a week after their wedding. One of the doors to the other bedchamber opened and a soldier came stumbling out, pulling up his breeches, his confused gaze landing on her. “What’s happening?” he asked. For a moment she was surprised he’d spoken to her, then she realized that he thought she was an English soldier, dressed as she was in her red coat and white breeches.
