Until the night her coach is beset upon by the cavalier highwayman and his men and she finds herself an unwelcome guest of the outlaw. Elizabet is determined to exact revenge for the downfall of her family. But the more time she spends with the charming bandit, the more her heart desires what she can never have. Lord John Ramsay spends his days gracing the court of Charles II and his nights as the Highland Highwayman, dispensing justice to the former Lord Protector Cromwell's old followers. Until the night a feisty young heiress falls into his arms. Now he finds himself torn--she is the daughter of his greatest enemy...and the only thing he has ever desired for himself. John's enemies will hurt Elizabet to get to him if they can. But he promised his protection and he'll do whatever is necessary to defend the woman he never expected to love. No matter the consequences. *Formerly part of the Passionate Promises anthology* less
