When she is called to the manorial court to answer false charges of 'lying with a man', she expects to be confronted by the kindly Earl Cameron, hoping to have the ridiculous claim dismissed. Instead, she faces the earl's son, James Cameron, who confounds her and intrigues her at the same time. James Cameron is instantly captivated by the very alluring Isla Gordon, but the lass repeatedly rebuffs his overtures, wanting nothing to do with any man. His offer of a position inside the keep is looked upon with suspicion, and her skepticism is only heightened by his seeming inability to NOT kiss her whenever they meet. Isla is quite sure that no man has anything worthwhile to offer her, but James is determined to prove her wrong. AND THEN HE LOVED ME is a stand-alone novella, a prelude to the HIGHLANDER HEROES SERIES. Enjoy!
