Falling For a Highland Thief: A Steamy Scottish Medieval Historical Romance (Highlands’ Partners in Crime)

She could fake everything but her love for him.

Hector Ballantyne has been working hard for the past few years to repay the debt his father left to the family. However, the moment the last penny is paid back does not feel redeeming, as it is coupled with the news of Hector’s father’s death. Hector is devastated and needs to know what happened to him, so against his mother’s wishes, he travels to the place his father was last seen.
Determined to do whatever it takes to find out the truth, Hector realizes that his best chance lies with Adaira, a mysterious woman who was one of the last persons to see his father alive. Adaira is the most charming woman Hector has ever met, but there is something very peculiar and strange about her. He can feel that she is hiding something from him, but he needs her help and thus chooses to trust her for the moment. Following her information, Hector does not take long to discover the truth; his father was murdered.
To make things worse, the man who killed him is portraited by Adaira as a dangerous and vicious criminal. Nevertheless, Hector is not afraid of him and wants his revenge, so he asks her to help him track down his father’s murderer. Unbeknownst to Hector, Adaira knows exactly where the man lives, but she does not want to take him there for his own safety.
Adaira seemingly has no reason to care about Hector but the lass has begun feeling affection towards the brawny Highlander, so she lies to him to protect him. The tormented son can no longer tolerate her mischief, but he has no idea that the truth is much harsher; Adaira is not who she says she is, and it turns out that she was involved in his father’s death much closer than Hector was led to believe!
A life of lies and thievery has made Adaira able to fool anyone, so lying once more should be easy for her. But for the first time in her life, she decides to finally speak the truth, no matter how severe the consequences will be.
