The Lady He Loathed (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781991280060)

No matter how much they hated each other ... fate tied them together. Two sworn enemies are shipwrecked-and are forced to confront the dark secret they both share. Scars, sacrifices, and high adventure in Medieval Scotland.

Years ago, Astrid Maclean's best friend died in a tragic accident ... but Astrid doesn't believe it was an accident. Instead, she holds one man responsible.

Finn MacDonald carries a heavy burden, one that he shares with no one. After a decade away at war, he now serves the Macleans of Duart on the Isle of Mull. However, he still holds a deep resentment toward the locals who once tried to hang him-and the woman who incited their hatred.

When the clan-chief charges them both with a vital mission on the eve of war with the neighboring clan, Astrid and Finn are forced to work alongside each other.

They set off to get help from allies, but when a violent storm hits their ship and they are shipwrecked on a desolate isle, their journey goes awry.

Suddenly, two sworn enemies are thrown together in a fight for survival.

And when they are, the truth about the past ... and how they really feel about each other ... is finally revealed.

THE LADY HE LOATHED is Book Three of an exciting new Medieval Scottish Romance trilogy by Jayne Castel-full of flawed yet irresistible Highland warriors and determined Scottish lasses!
