The Lord’s Captive by Cecelia Mecca
He captured her for revenge. She stole his heart in return.
The Lord
Sir Bryce Waryn has dreamed for years of the day he will finally liberate his home from the Scots who murdered his parents and stole his brother’s birthright. Now that day has come. His brother has abdicated the title of Lord of Bristol Manor to him, and Bryce should be celebrating his victory.
Instead, something unexpected stands in his way.
In the chaos of the raid, Lady Catrina Kerr—the sister of the Scot who once ruled Bristol—was injured and left behind. Bryce takes her captive, convinced she will be the perfect tool to exact a far more satisfying revenge against his enemy. But the fiery, resilient woman is far more compelling than he ever anticipated… and far more dangerous to his guarded heart.
The Captive
Raised by three elder brothers, Lady Catrina Kerr knows a thing or two about stubborn men. But Bryce Waryn is more strong-willed than all of them combined. He’s also infuriatingly honorable, devastatingly handsome, and far kinder than any man who has taken her prisoner has a right to be.
Determined to protect her brothers, Catrina is intent on escaping her captor. But as Bryce’s plans grow more perilous… and her feelings for him deepen… she is forced to face an impossible choice between her family’s safety and the man who has captured her heart.
