About the Book
New York Times bestselling author Hannah Howell brings back the daring Murray family in a brand-new tale of dangerous love rekindled. . .
Lady Annys MacQueen has no other choice. The deception that enabled her to keep her lands safe is on the verge of being revealed by a cruel kinsman. To shield her young son from the sword and her people from devastation, she must turn to the one man she could never forget. . .
He lives for duty and honor. So the only way Sir Harcourt Murray could repay the laird who saved his life was to agree to father a child with Sir MacQueen’s wife. . .Lady Annys. Now the passion he still feels for the lovely strong-willed widow is as all-consuming and perilous as securing her lands. But to convince her that his love is forever real means confronting her most wrenching fears–and putting everything they treasure most at stake. . .
My Thoughts
This was actually a great story! I love that they already had history and spent so much time fighting it all but there is one point where Harcourt just simply gives up fighting it and gives him. He knows what he wants and what he willing to do to get it. Annys has spent five years feeling guilty for doing what her husband asked and sleeping with Harcourt. Harcourt in turn has spent five years feeling guilty over the fact that he slept with a married woman and walking away from her and his child. They have both spent all that time longing for one another and now they are thrown back together in a fight for not only their son’s life but also their hearts. I would highly recommend Highland Guard to anyone wanting a great historical romance story!
I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.

Historical romance is about the only romance book I will read. This doesnt sound too bad, and I do like the cover quite a bit 🙂 I hope this was based somewhat on fact as far the the historical aspect that I like best.
I would likely read this book.

Wow – his eyes are completely mesmerizing. I actually scrolled up again to look at them. Sometimes I read the book just because of the cover picture – this would be one of those.
