title: The Highlander's Pledge
author: Adams, Aileen
description: Highland promises are forever... Keith MacFarlane's a man on a mission. Find the babe. It is not for him to question orders. A man raised on the horse, wielding the sword, he is prone to obeying commands, even when those commands might go against the grain. Eidith Gilbraith does not yield to any man. She's been charged with protecting the wee ones from outsiders, especially a golden-haired bairn who's captured her heart. She wields a pistol with a confidence that is all bluster as she shuns the newcomer who asks too many questions. When the true identity of the bairn is revealed, will Eidith and Keith be able to put aside their differences to find common ground in saving the children from imminent danger? Will they have to sacrifice the feelings they've begun to succumb to in order to keep the wee ones safe?
