The Laird is Left for Dead
Stranded in the Scottish Highlands, a governess must care for two children and an injured nobleman who believes she is his wife...
Englishwoman Catherine Edwards has spent the last ten years molding herself into the perfect, invisible servant: educated but not radical, neat but not too pretty-the kind of woman who comes from a family where the skeletons stay firmly in their coffins. And if her new employer, the cold and proper Marquess of Thistledown, ignores her existence, so much the better.
But when their carriage is attacked in the wilderness, the marquess is gravely injured. Now it is Catherine who must keep them all alive, for her employer will not wake. And when he finally does, the stuffy nobleman she thought she knew is... not quite himself.
She hardly recognizes Thistledown in the reckless, silver-tongued Highlander who claims she is his wife-and who insists on keeping her by his side. Now she must navigate unfamiliar terrain, a foreign culture, and a laird who is either dangerously changed, or distressingly deceptive.
As threats close in and secrets unravel, she must choose: leave Scotland and the family she's fallen in love with, or risk it all on a man she isn't certain she can trust.
Set in 1827, The Laird is Left for Dead is book 2 of The Dishonourable Paxtons, a kisses-only romance series featuring forced proximity, adventure, found family, and gorgeous locales. It can be read standalone.
