The Memory of Her Kiss (Highlander Heroes Book 2) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781960041012)

Anice Lindsay is a novice at Jardine abbey, whose true calling seems to be getting into trouble. Gregor Kincaid, known as The Fist of Scotland, is a fierce warrior and noble companion to William Wallace.

Gravely wounded and separated from his army, Gregor stumbles upon the exquisite Anice, locked outside of the nunnery in the midst of one of her regular punishments. His decision to save her has more to do with her beguiling blue eyes than his need of assistance.

Anice is only too happy to escape the discontent of Jardine. When the braw chief of the Kincaid's rescues her and then promptly collapses from his wounds, she doesn't think twice about secreting and nursing him until his army comes to collect him.

En route to Stonehaven, the Kincaid fortress by the sea, Gregor struggles mightily against his growing desire for Anice while she innocently and happily surrenders to his kisses. Once safely arrived at Stonehaven, Anice learns the reason behind his resistance: he is betrothed to a woman of an enemy highland family, and the wedding must take place to put an end to years of violence.

Highland intrigue blooms in the background of the great war for Scottish freedom. Setting aside his feelings for Anice in favor of peace in the Highlands, can Gregor live with his choice to put Anice out of his reach, out of his arms, and out of his heart?

As with all the Highlander Heroes Series, The Memory of Her Kiss is a stand-alone novel. The characters from different books do sometimes interact, but these can be read in any order.
