(The third book in the Love's Second Chance series)
A novel by Bree Wolf
Love at first fight.
Scotland, 1805: Connor Brunwood, on his way to claim his late father’s title, never expected to find an English lass sword-fighting in a deserted clearing. Dressed in men’s attire with her blond hair tucked under a large hat, her spirited blue eyes and graceful movements captivate him instantly. Connor, struck by a mix of admiration and mischief, declares his bold intention: to make this fiery woman his wife.
She's scared off every suitor—except one.
Henrietta Turner, weary of men and their dubious intentions, lives by her own fiercely independent rules. With a scowl potent enough to scatter suitors and an outright manner that has the local gentry fleeing, she’s determined to remain unwed. But her plans skid to a halt when the disarming Highland chief stumbles upon her secret retreat.
A Highland chief with a heart as fierce as his sword.
Despite Henrietta’s vehement protests, Connor cleverly bypasses her refusals by securing an agreement from her uncle. Outraged yet secretly intrigued, Henrietta vows to resist this “savage brute” from the north, whose crooked smile and perceptive eyes unsettle her in ways she can't explain. As Connor’s wit and gentle strength begin to dismantle her defenses, Henrietta finds the walls around her heart crumbling.
She's all edge, he's all charm—perfectly unmatched.
Caught between resistance and the thrill of an unexpected romance, Henrietta faces a choice: cling to her fears or embrace the kind heart of a man who offers his love as a sanctuary.
In a blend of humor and heart, Connor and Henrietta’s tale unfolds as a battle of wills turns into a dance of affection, proving that even the staunchest hearts can learn to love.
Each love story in this series can be read as a stand-alone. However, most readers prefer to read them in order.
Genre: Historical Romance
