Love Found: In the Scottish Highlands
Julie Madrigal was a mother of two children. Once she was legally separated from her ex-husband, she went to the only place she felt safe. The Scottish Highlands. Then again, she had only seen the place in books and videos, but the land called to her. And she wasn't expecting love. Duncan McLaren was the current Laird of the land. He was charming, helpful, and the epitome of a perfect man. Yet he hides a secret that would destroy the very thing he hold dear to his heart. Meeting Julie was kismet and he would gladly give up everything to be with her and the kids. But will love be enough to keep her? Or will the past destroy everything?
Her Mom and The Ex
Call me disrespectful, but I do not to look at the person who had caused me too much grief while I was here. I saw Duncan glance at the doorway. He must have seen the sudden change in me. I heard him curse in Gaelic and tapped Colin.
His son also looked at the doorway, then at me. He must have connected the dots because he too, swore in his native language. Father and son were speaking in Celtic. It didn't irked me, not like before. I saw Colin stand up and walk to where Fujin and the children were.
Duncan stopped playing with my hair and settled his hand on the nape of my neck. He was gently rubbing his thumb at the base of my skull to relax me. It was working, but not as much as I wanted it to.
"Aunt Eva, lovely to see you," I heard Mike say. "You looked lovely as always. How are you?"
