Christmas Wishes of Love
Her first mistake was not killing the brute when she met him. Her second was falling in love with him.

Highlander Rory Matheson knows what he wants—a biddable wife. So when an edict from the king demands Rory choose a bride by Winter Solstice from the twin daughters of his clan's greatest enemies—The MacLeods, he knows the moment he meets the sharp-tongued, headstrong Lillith that he'll definitely not be picking her. Not only is she far from the docile wife he craves for peace, she's unpredictable and dangerous—she put an arrow in his shoulder! Yet, he cannot keep away from the oddly enticing lass who stirs his desire. She's brave and cunning, and she challenges him at every turn. And as the king's deadline draws near, Rory comes to realize that he no longer wishes to win his battle of wills with Lillith—he's determined to claim her heart.

Lillith MacLeod wants to be a warrior, not a wife. She's seen the havoc love creates, and she'll pass—thank you very much. She's determined to defy both king and clan rather than become the bride of Rory bloody Matheson, so she hatches a scheme to drive Rory away and leave her clan blame-free. But she soon finds herself entangled in fiery exchanges with the irritatingly handsome Scot that spark her interest, kisses that ignite her desire, and a competition that reveals an honorable, caring side of the Hammer of the Highlands that she never expected. As tensions rise between the women and men of her clan over the edict and the king's deadline looms, her family's future—and her own—hangs in the balance, and she must decide: is love her greatest enemy or is it herself?
