The Piper's Lady

True love binds them. Deceit divides them. Will they choose love?


Lady Coira Norwood spent her youth traveling with her grandfather. Now well past the age men prefer when they choose a wife, she has resigned herself to remain a maiden. But everything changes once she arrives at Berwyck Castle. She cannot resist a dashing knight who runs to her rescue, but would he give her a second look?


Garrick of Clan MacLaren can hold his own with the trained Knights of Berwyck, but as the clan's piper they would rather he play his instruments to entertain them—or lead them into battle—than to fight with a sword upon the lists. Only when he sees a lady across the training field and his heart sings for the first time does he begin to wish to be something he is not.


Will a simple misunderstanding between them threaten what they have found in one another or will they at last let love into their hearts?
