‘But you have not told me what you expect from me when you come here—if, as you say, you will visit each night.’
‘I expect nothing other than your good company,’ he said. And that was true. In that moment he did want only that.
A laugh escaped from her—a wonderful sound to his ears—and she gifted him with the smile he’d wanted to see. It was the first sign of joy in her face in weeks.
‘And you expect me to believe that? After you have all but promised to seduce me into your bed?’
She did not appear to be opposed to it, so he would bide his time. ‘I would not mind that either,’ he admitted.
AUTHOR NOTE
When I wrote TAMING THE HIGHLANDER in 2005 it was a stand-alone story and I never planned to write any other stories connected to the MacLerie Clan. I had no idea that I would become so wrapped up in their family that in the end I would write ten MacLerie romances—including two about their descendants in Regency times! So it is bittersweet to come to the last story, and somehow fitting that it should be about the heir of Connor MacLerie.
Aidan MacLerie has lived a charmed and privileged life and now must make decisions that will shape his future and that of his clan. Falling in love with the wrong woman is not the best choice he’s made in his life, but now he faces the consequences and his father’s ire.
I hope you have enjoyed watching these wonderful Highlanders and the women they love as much as I have enjoyed writing their stories.
Sláinte!

DEDICATION
During my writing career I’ve discovered those times when the empty page mocks me and torments me, daring me to fill it with words worthy of being read. In those dark times (and in the good times, too) two particular groups of writers have proved indispensable to me during my writing years—the Hussies and the Hermits.
To the Hussies—the Harlequin Historical authors—thanks for being my safe place in the craziness of writing and publishing these last years. Whether I need answers, advice, help with titles or just camaraderie, you provide it … 24/7/365.
To the Hermits—the wonderful group of writers who gather each year in Lowcountry SC to write on the beach—thanks for being there to help me recover, recuperate, revive and refocus!
