Welcome to another installment of My Sexy Saturday. Every Saturday a great set of authors share 7 words, paragraphs or lines from one of their books or WIPs. Be sure to check out the other posts on offer below:

So this week we’re sharing our strong, lovable, quirky heroines–the ones who kick-ass and take names but still have a soft side longing for love. Alana from To Steal a Highlander’s Heart is one of these. She’s feisty and determined. After all, she’s just been captured by her childhood friend and she’s not willing to go easily. Alana can be impetuous and–for Morgann–a pain in the backside! But she’s fiercely loyal and determined to do the right thing. Check out this little snippet from one of Morgann and Alana’s earlier moments together. I love how completely confused by her he is!

~~~~~~~~~~

As if to torture him further, her lips tickled over his neck and he stiffened, trying to hold her at bay.
“What’s wrong, Morgann? Dinnae ye want me?” she whispered against his skin.
“I dinnae want a lass who’s had several knocks to the head. Yer brain is addled. Ye dinnae know what ye want.”
“Are ye, the brave Highland warrior, afeared of a harmless lass?”
Harmless? He could hardly believe sweet Alana was carefully threading her leg between his and pressing her juncture against his thigh. Her knee brushed against his arousal—aye, he was insanely aroused—and he held back a groan.

Moray, Scotland, 1230 

Alana sets eyes on Morgann for the first time in several years and what does he do? He captures her! But Alana refuses to go meekly with the sexy Highland warrior. Her kidnapping will reignite the rift that’s existed between the two clans since her father accused Morgann of theft and she doesn’t want to see her father harmed in the inevitable war that will ensue. 

Unfortunately for Alana, the faeries seek to interfere with her plans to escape. The sidhe have a debt to repay and Tèile, the green faery, is determined to mend the rift between the clans for good. And that means ensuring Alana and Morgann marry. 


Morgann has his own reasons for taking Alana and they are nothing to do with marriage or war. He wants to use her to reveal a secret from the past–the one that had him accused of theft. If only he didn’t find his childhood friend so attractive. When circumstances force them together, Alana’s life is threatened and war is imminent. Can Morgann reveal the truth without losing Alana? And will the faery’s meddling help or hinder his cause?
