Highland Flame — Joyce Carlow

In HIGHLAND FIRE, Joyce Carlow gave us the stirring tale of highland beauty Edana McLean. Now in HIGHLAND FLAME, the second book of this series set in eighteenth-century Scotland, she weaves the story of Edana's identical twin sister, Aileena Cameron. Separated at birth, neither sister knows of the other's existence. Yet soon the truth of their origins and the haunting dreams that connect them will finally be revealed as Aileena follows her heart into a maelstrom of perilous intrigue and forbidden desire...

HIGHLAND FLAME
Although her marriage had been an arranged one, Aileena Cameron was deeply attached to her invalid husband -- and never dwelt on the passion that was missing from her marriage. But when fate played a cruel trick, and she found herself in the brawny arms of a seductive stranger -- a daring fugitive from the British, whose stolen kisses awakened her most intimate yearnings -- Aileena found herself torn between honor and temptation...

Struck by a bullet as he made a mad dash for freedom, Alex MacDougal had barely escaped death when he stumbled upon an exquisite angel. He didn't know then that Aileena was already wed. He only knew that the bonny and brave lass was everything he'd ever dreamed of in a woman. And when Aileena became a pawn in a deadly game of vengeance that brutally took the life of her husband, Alex knew he had to rescue the only woman he would ever love...
