The Reiver by Jackie BarbosaA Scottish Border RomanceDuncan Maxwell, laird of Lochmorton Castle is surprised to find the lad they captured and threw into the dungeon is not a lad at all. He puts the lass up in a warm bed and plies her with good food in hopes of finding out who she wrote with as a reiver. It seems she would prefer the noose to betraying her loved ones.Jamie Johstone finds the Maxwell's to be more kind that she grew up thinking. She tried to hold unto her hate for them but Duncan was kind to her and all his people thought highly of him as well. But no matter....she was an enemy and didn't have the beauty and feminine wiles to persuade him different.An enjoyable short story to read when you don't feel like reading a long book. Loosely based on the history of two border families that were feuding. The romance is fictional.**Sensual situations
