Honor & Obsession - Jayne Castel

. .

Résumé :
He'll burn it all down. For her. A dutiful chieftain. A reclusive healer with a deadly secret. An obsession that defies the rules. Craeg Maclean has spent his life proving he's nothing like his brutal father. He's honorable, controlled, and his betrothal to a chieftain's daughter will create a crucial alliance-even if the match leaves him feeling trapped. But then his horse throws him in the woods, and nothing will be the same again. Hazel has lived in isolation for as long as she can remember, hiding in the forest with her protective mother. She's a gifted healer, but she keeps the world at arm's length. When her mother dies, she reveals a devastating truth about who Hazel really is. And then the local chieftain appears at her door, injured. The night that follows forms a connection between them. Hazel knows she should resist the pull. He's her chieftain. He's betrothed. And she's ten years his elder with a deadly secret. But Craeg can't stop thinking about the fierce woman who challenged him, healed him, and made him laugh. For the first time in his life, he feels alive-not just dutiful. His fascination becomes obsession. And obsession becomes something far more dangerous. She's everything he's not supposed to want. He's everything she can't afford to love. As his wedding day approaches and killers close in, they face a choice: honor the life they're supposed to live or fight for the one they desperately want. Because some loves are worth risking everything for. Full of suspense, emotion, and delicious spice, SONS OF MULL is a spin-off series from ROGUES OF MULL and HIGHLAND SCANDAL. The trilogy follows three warriors-Craeg, Ailean, and Greig-and the fierce women who make them question everything they thought they knew about duty, honor, and love....
