Must Love Highlanders

Art history professor Liam Cromarty agrees to show American attorney Louise Cameron the Scottish sights as a favor to a cousin. He doesn't expect that his guest will challenge and charm him, until all he can see is the possibility of a shared future with Louise.

She's at a professional crossroad, between the courtroom and the creative career she was robbed of as a younger woman. Liam is the perfect partner for exploring all of the wonders of Scotland, and he also inspires Louise to renew her artistic ambitions. When Liam realizes his actions were responsible for cheating Louise out of her dream years ago, he knows that whether he keeps silent about the past or reveals the truth, he could lose Louise forever.

The Laird and I by Patience Griffin

Sophie Munro agrees to spend a week at Kilheath Castle learning kiltmaking because she's been assured Hugh McGillivray, owner of the castle and the associated sheep-to-shawl wool operation, won't be in residence. The taciturn Hugh caught Sophie's eye once upon a time, but did nothing to indicate a reciprocal interest, so when he turns up very much at home at the castle, awkwardness nearly sends Sophie scampering home to Gandiegow.

Hugh was much taken with Sophie when their paths crossed, but he's a man beset by griefs old and new, and unwilling to risk his heart. He challenges himself to observe the proprieties during a week in close quarters with Sophie, while Sophie has decided that she'll not return to Gandiegow without at least sampling Hugh's charms. Stubbornness, sweetness and steam weave a pattern of tenderness and humor around Laird and lass both, but will they tie the knot when the week is over?
