Highlander Heats Up Laureen Hanley

Monica and her friends were just trying to salvage a weekend gone wrong when her friends, Lily and Terrie, disappeared into the unknown. Now on a mission to save her two best friends Monica must decide on whether she wants to assume the role of wallflower again or become the strong woman she needs to be to save her friends and herself. Leaving behind everything she has ever known she steps forth into a strange land and embarks on an adventure that even Monica never dreamed of. She must learn to trust herself as well as the people around her or face the disappointment of being alone. Finding her friends is one of the many struggles that Monica must face, but not the hardest as she comes face to face with a highland warrior named Lucas. Lucas, a spoiled first son, will one day take over leadership of his clan. First he must find a wife, but one escapade after another has produced nothing more than a long line of jealous woman. About to fall victim to an arranged marriage, Lucas is drawn to Monica. For the first time in his life he feels that there could be something more with this girl than just another passing intrigue. With the odds stacked against them, will each be able to put their issues aside and become one or will the ever growing need to please be more than each had ever anticipated. Will each of them be able to stand up for what they believe is right, or fall prey to the circumstances which are out of both their control.
