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?
It was easy for Duncan to reserve and schedule their flights. He had a personal jet that he could use anytime. Something he had never done. So, the pilots he employed were surprised that they would be going to the Philippines.
Duncan smiled. He was used to just teleporting to the places he needed to go. Google Maps had certainly helped him. The topography of the land had drastically changed over the past few millennia, and not for the best.
There was a knock on the door, then Colin stepped in. His son wore a frown on his face and was clearly irritated over something. He poured a shot of whiskey and drank it in one go. Duncan watched as Colin reached for another kind of drink in the bar.
"The absinthe is on the top drawer, upper left. The Spirytus is right beside it," Duncan pointed out.
