“I believe the wedding and the first day of the celebration was a success.” Marcus wrapped his arms around Isobel in bed late that eve. He couldn’t have been more pleased about how well everyone had gotten along and how much his kinsmen had jested with him about dancing with Isobel that was not like any form of dancing they’d ever seen. But he hadn’t wanted to give her up for anything, after what had happened the last time he had been with her at a celebration like this.
“My father has always been the one to win men over in his quest for peace,” Isobel said, “and yet you won him over so completely this day, I am in awe.”
“He is a good man. He could see how happy we are together and how my people love you as one of their own.”
“Aye. I am home.”
“Do you miss Torrent Castle?”
“A little.”
“Then I will have to work harder at keeping you perfectly happy so that you dinna think on it any longer.”
She laughed, then placed his hands on her breasts. “No one can make me happier.”
“Ah, lass. You are the joy of my life.” He began to kiss her neck, careful to touch her breasts with the utmost tenderness.
“Hmm, I wonder who won the bet, concerning when I would be with child.”
“We did.”
That was all that needed to be said and she thought of nothing more but of soaring into the heavens with her heroic Highlander.

Thanks be to those who helped me to bring this book to you: Loretta Melvin, who brainstormed with me for days and days and days, making sure I had tied up all the loose ends. Neither of us knew who the villains were until the end. But when we did? We were ready to celebrate. Vonda Sinclair and Judy Gill, my critique partners, who continue to amaze me with catching all the stuff I can’t ever seem to catch. Donna Fournier, who will ensure I really have tied up all the loose ends and sometimes come up with stuff that makes me have to change a lot more stuff–laughing, Dottie Jones, who is so good at catching my dyslexic derivations of sentences that sound perfectly fine to me, and oh, yeah, her comma genius, Maria McIntyre, who is my newest beta reader to help make this the best it can be, Bonnie Gill, who is a pleasure to work with, invaluable, and falls in love with my characters time and again, and Loretta Melvin, who, after all the work she did on helping me to tie up loose ends, reread it all over again. That’s dedication!
Thanks, lassies! You are the greatest!
