The Knight (The Highland Guard)

(This is a novella of approximately 45,000 words.)

A novella set in the world of New York Times Bestselling Author Monica McCarty's Highland Guard Series.

The year is 1311, and the battle for Scotlandâ€™s independence rages onâ€¦ Stripped of his lands by the English king who killed his father, James Douglas will do whatever it takes to see his clanâ€™s honor and fortune restored. The ambitious young knight, whose dark visage, powerful stature, and ferocity in battle has earned him the epithet â€œthe Black,â€ knows he must use fear, force, and intimidation to defeat the English, put Robert the Bruce on Scotlandâ€™s throne, and restore the honor of the Douglas name. Nothing and no one will get in his way. Not even the lass who captured his heart in childhood and still holds it in her delicate hands.

Joanna Dicson has loved James Douglas for as long as she can remember. That she is â€œonlyâ€ the daughter of the marshal of Douglas Castle has never concerned her. Yet even as Jamesâ€™s ruthless reputation grows, and despite the warnings of others to guard her heartâ€”and her virtueâ€”against him, Joanna never dreams he will turn on her. He loves her and would never hurt her. But when James returns to Douglas to force the English garrison from his castle, Joanna learns that their love is nothing against his ambition. His marriageâ€”like everything elseâ€”will be a means of bettering his clan. Heartbroken and humiliated, Joanna is left alone with a secret that may destroy them both.
