The Devil of Helburn by the Sea
(2024)(The sixth book in the Highlander: The Legends series)
A novel by Rebecca Ruger
Sparks flicker when Julia Wake finds herself intrigued by the mighty Caelen MacFayden. Despite awakening unexpected feelings within him, their connection is hindered by cruel manipulations, leading to a shocking revelation. Caelen, believing he had shared a passionate night with Julia, discovers himself trapped in a forced marriage with her cousin, unaware of the unwitting role Julia played in this twist of fate.
Only distantly related to the strongholds chieftain and often overlooked, lacking the beauty and abundance of her cousin, Julia has guarded her heart fiercely, until the day she meets Caelen MacFayden. In the course of three days, he manages to tear down every wall around her heart, making her a willing accomplice to her own seduction right before he is compelled to wed her cousin.
Caelen is haunted by that one night of passion, hardly able to reconcile the manipulative wife for whom he feels no desire with the memory of the temptress in his bed that fateful night. He is almost relieved when war calls to him, taking him away from his home and his overindulged wife.
When they meet again, despite the realization that he still has the power to enthrall her, Julia knows that the last man on earth to whom she could ever give her heart is the one who believes she had conspired to entrap him.
