What Happens in the Highlands

About the book

Three remarkably talented sisters in Georgian Scotland must defend their ancestral stronghold from those seeking to steal its rumored riches - and their affections - in this sweeping, action-packed, new historical romance series for fans of India Holton, Lex Crocher, Manda Collins, and Evie Dunmore.

Since their father, Rory, passed away, the MacLeod sisters have been dealing with gangs of smugglers convinced he left a treasure hidden within the walls of Castle Cairncross. Only strange events have thwarted the robbers - leading to rumors that the sisters possess supernatural powers. However, they have no treasure, nor are they witches. But each possesses a mysterious gift. The oldest, Catriona, is a skilled healer and alchemist - talents she is about to put to unexpected use . . .

Hamish Muir, the charming Marquess of Ballantyne and son of Rory’s business colleague, has come to stake his claim to the treasure. When he spots fiery-haired Cat in the village, he follows her. Yet, circumstances shift, and Hamish ends up at Castle Cairncross - emerging from a trance . . .

Despite believing the castle holds no treasure, Hamish remains convinced Rory concealed it somewhere. Cat proposes a deal: She will help Hamish decipher her father’s writings if he takes her along on the treasure hunt - and ensures her sisters are not left alone. Reluctantly, Hamish summons two Lairds to the castle. But as he and Cat embark on a journey through a maze of maps and peril, a mutual admiration - and attraction - sparks between them. Perhaps the true treasure isn't gold after all . . .
