Overview

Highland warrior Gordon Lachlan has spent his life fiercely battling the English. Now, to claim victory for his clan, he must retrieve the legendary Sword of the MacKenna from the hands of his mortal enemies. His plan: to kidnap Constance Cameron from her remote boarding school and force her wellborn relatives to surrender the sword as her ransom.

But Lachlan is surprised that the woman he's snatched from her bed is no malleable miss. Constance longs for adventure. She's tantalized by Lachlan and his passionate cause . . . and tempted enough by his seductive ways to wonder what it would be like to find herself in the Highlander's bed . . .

Read an Excerpt

In the Highlander's Bed

Chapter One

Ollie's Mill, Scotland
November 1808

Desperate men resorted to desperate measures.

Or so Gordon Lachlan reminded himself as he raised his hand, an order for the three men he traveled with to halt on the moonlit road.

His plan was to kidnap Miss Constance Cameron, a pupil at Madame Lavaliere's Academy for Young Women, and the Duke of Colster's sister by marriage. The price of her ransom would be the Sword of the MacKenna, a weapon revered throughout the Highlands. The man who wielded that sword would have enough power to lead his countrymen into the very bowels of hell.

Gordon didn't want to go that far. He just wanted to throw the English out of Scotland, and he needed the authority of the Sword of the MacKenna to do it.

Unfortunately, Colster wasn't of a mind to hand it over to him. The fine duke had forgotten his Scottish loyalties. Upon accepting his title, he'd sworn allegiance to the king. So Gordon knew he was going to need coercion. He didn't want to kidnap Miss Constance Cameron, but His Grace left him no other choice.

"Dismount and lead your horses up across the ditch into the trees," he ordered softly. "We'll walk from here. The school is about a mile through that pine forest. Wait until your eyes adjust to the darkness before you move. I don't want any stumbling around."

Horses and riders crossed the ditch by the side of the road. They had just melted into the shadows of the trees when a rumbling vibration beneath their feet warned them they were not alone.

Gordon and his men raised their hands to their horses to keep themquiet just as a large party of men came galloping on the road, heading toward the Academy. English soldiers. Mostly officers, by the amount of gold braid on their uniforms. Moonlight turned the red of their military jackets to black and their wigs to silver. They were obviously from the garrison at Edinburgh, and riding as if eager to reach their destination.

The four Scots waited until the soldiers had safely passed. Thomas was the first to break the silence by spitting his opinion of the English on the ground. He was a giant, a bear of a man, with black hair he wore pulled back in a queue under a wide-brimmed gray hat. A scruff of whiskers always darkened his jaw. "Did you not say this road dead-ends at the school? What business would they have on this road this night?"

"You don't think they know about us, do you, Gordon?" Robbie asked.

"They couldn't," Gordon assured him. This plan was too new and had been kept too secret to have been compromised.

"Are we going to continue?" Brian wanted to know. "They outnumber us three to one." "They could outnumber us a hundred to one and we'd go forward," Gordon said. "Follow me."

Enough of the rising moon's thin light came through the trees to guide their path. Gordon wouldn't show it, but he was concerned about the English.

Madame Lavaliere's Academy for Young Women catered to the daughters of the wealthy, the privileged. There could be a number of reasons a party of soldiers could be rushing to the school.

What Gordon didn't want was to delay his plans. Winter was upon them. He had a camp of five hundred men, women, and children who depended upon him to see them safe. He needed the Sword of the MacKenna. It would give him credit to purchase gunpowder and shot as well as food for empty bellies.

The soldiers might complicate matters a bit, but they would not deter him from his quarry. He had traveled a long way to kidnap Constance Cameron, and kidnap her tonight he would.

When he estimated they were close to the school, he motioned for Brian to hold the horses while he and the others took the climbing ropes and made their way to where the forest met the edge of the school's vast manicured lawn.

Gordon's plan was simple and expedient. They would wait until the students were settled for the night. He would then climb the wall to the second-floor window where Constance Cameron slept. He'd tie her up and carry her away. His horses were fast and his men traveled light. They could outride anyone pursuing them, even a party of English soldiers.

After all, they'd done it time and time before.

However, as they came into sight of the school, Gordon came to an abrupt halt in surprise. The school was ablaze with light. Grooms walked horses along the front drive, while the faint but distinct sound of fiddles and drums drifted in the air toward them. Among those grooms were several of the king's soldiers holding some very fine horses.

They were having a bloody dance. Gordon swore in disbelief and ordered his men back into the shadows with a curt gesture.

"What now?" Robbie whispered.

Gordon didn't answer immediately. Madame Lavaliere's academy had been an abbey back in Scotland's Roman Catholic days. Over the centuries, towers and buildings had been added. "Her room is on the second floor by that far garret." He'd paid a maid for the information. Obviously, the puss had forgotten an important detail—like the dance. "I was to be in and out in ten minutes."

"After dancing all night, they'll be sleeping all the better," Thomas said. He leaned against a tree, making himself comfortable. "At least now we know why the Sassenachs were in such a hurry." He referred to the English soldiers. "They've come a wooing." He drew out the syllables of that last word, making Robbie smile. "They want to catch a rich man's daughter. We should go dancing, too."

Gordon scowled.

"Och, come on, Gordon," Thomas chided. "You are too serious. We'll take her. We just have to bide our time, or have you forgotten the price on your head?"

"How can I, with you reminding me of it every time I turn around?"

Entertaining, and a quick read.

Good romantic read! However the ending did seem a bit shallow. Sort of like the author was rushing at the end to just finish the book. But overall not a bad read.

Very good read

This book was very good, I couldn't put it down. Cathy Maxwell is an awesome author and would recommend her to anyone who has a love for romance and adventure. I can' wait for her new book about Fiona and Dominic to come out. (If you read this book, you will know what I am talking about, so go out and buy a copy) :)

This is an enjoyable regency romance.

In 1808 Highland laird Gordon Lachlan knows the significance of the legendary Sword of the MacKenna and what it means to his clan. To regain the vaunted weapon from the Duke of Colster, he plans to kidnap the Duke¿s sister by marriage Constance Cameron, who attends Madame Lavaliere¿s Academy for Young Women to erase some of barbaric American taint. Gordon assumes that Constance¿s family by marriage will trade the sword for her.------------ Gordon is taken aback that Constance seems unafraid of him and in some ways he feels like her captive especially when she makes it clear that he is a buffoon who has wrecked havoc to return to America. As she keeps trying to escape, an exasperated Gordon finally decides enough, but cannot stop himself from kissing the spirited colonialist. They fall in love while he tries to stay focused and she ponders how to make his plan work.------------- This is a fun captivity romance in which the audience will agree with the hero as to who is the prisoner and who is jailer. The story line combines humor, especially when Constance acts like a termagant and rips off Gordon¿s skin, with a poignant belief that people got to be free. This is an enjoyable regency romance.------------------- Harriet Klausner
