The Wrong Highland Bridegroom: A Novella (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Isabelle had made sure she looked the image of Maid Marian, complete with the silver crown. Her blond hair was plaited down her back and the sleeves of her silken gown almost dragged on the floor. A cheer emerged from the crowd in homage to the Maid Marian when she entered, but Effie quickly scanned the crowd, looking for evidence of two men. One, Sir Malcolm, was cheering for her heartily. The other, Sir Connor, gazed at her intently. Effie waved back at her admirers. She waved at Connor, but he hardly acknowledged her. She waved at Malcolm, who raised his glass and proposed a toast to the lovely Maid Marian. She wondered why Connor was so reserved. Even when she was doing something to help him, the man was prickly and distant. She inhaled sharply at the thought of the time they shared on the bed. Even though it was clear he was utterly unaffected by her, she enjoyed rubbing the muscles of a man in perfect condition.
