Midnight in Scotland · #2

The Taming of a Highlander

Elisa Braden

A Scot on fire

Wrongfully imprisoned and tortured by an unseen enemy, Broderick MacPherson lives for one purpose—punishing the villain who targeted him. But when a wayward English lass interrupts his revenge, he loses his enemy in the dark. Now, her compelled testimony could send Broderick back to the prison that nearly killed him. Unless they find a loophole—an inconvenient, shockingly tempting loophole.

A beauty under pressure

For Kate Huxley, visiting her brother in the Scottish Highlands is a blissful escape from the stifling expectations of the marriage mart. Blissful, that is, until a scarred, beastly Highlander with a heartbreaking past frightens her out of her wits, making her a witness in a criminal inquiry.

A match to light the darkness

Kate has no wish to testify against a man who’s already suffered too much. But the only remedy is to become his wife. And she can’t possibly marry such a surly, damaged man… can she? Well, perhaps. If it means she can stay in her beloved Scotland. And if he promises they’ll never fall in love.

The series begins with a tale that pulls you into a world of ancient family secrets, bold Highlanders, and a love that seems fated to endure across centuries. Each book explores the lives of strong-willed characters who are bound by more than just the pull of attraction—they are caught in a web of destiny, magic, and old-world intrigue. As love and mystery intertwine, readers are taken on a journey through fog-covered moors, crumbling castles, and unforgettable romances, where each heart-pounding moment leaves a lasting impression.

At the heart of the Midnight in Scotland series is the undeniable chemistry between the characters. These couples are fiercely loyal, incredibly passionate, and each story builds layers of tension as they navigate not only the challenges of love but the ominous forces surrounding them. Whether it’s a love rekindled in a past life or one that must withstand the pressures of an ancient curse, each romance offers something unexpected. The strong sense of place—the lush Scottish landscape, the ancient castles, and the dark, tempestuous nights—creates an atmosphere that feels as alive and unpredictable as the relationships at its core.

In every installment, Elisa Braden weaves a delicate balance of romance, suspense, and fantasy, all wrapped up in the allure of Scotland’s mystic charm. The series is perfect for readers who crave a blend of historical intrigue, rich character development, and the kind of slow-burn romance that leaves you holding your breath. In Midnight in Scotland, love isn't just a feeling; it’s an adventure, a mystery, and sometimes, a battle against forces beyond control.

If you're drawn to stories where love crosses the boundaries of time, where every kiss is laden with more than just emotion, and where the mist of Scotland conceals secrets begging to be uncovered, Midnight in Scotland invites you to lose yourself in its pages.
