BOUND BY DECEPTION
BOOK ONE: THE ENFORCER'S BRIDE

He ordered a bride … but they sent him a spy.

When Cailean, the High King’s brutal chief-enforcer, reluctantly orders the perfect wife, the enemy murders her and sends Bree, a ruthless Shee spy, in her place.

Her mission: marry, deceive, and kill him.

Neither wants this marriage. He’s harsh; she’s cunning. And yet as war looms, an unexpected connection forms between them.

But can a bond built on deception ever end in anything other than tragedy?

Welcome to the Kingdom of Albia, where warrior-druids and fae collide with Celtic and Pict myth in a dark and lush Romantasy duology about betrayal, sacrifice, divided loyalties … and deadly secrets.

THE PIRATE'S INDECENT PROPOSAL
BOOK ONE: HIGHLAND SCANDAL

Their pact sparked a love that defied all odds. When a lady in peril strikes a scandalous bargain with a pirate, neither of them suspects where it will lead. Revenge and high stakes on Medieval Isle of Mull.

After Liza Maclean’s cruel husband decides to do away with her, she finds herself tied up and left to die on a rock in the middle of the sea. All hope seems lost until she is unexpectedly saved … by pirates.

Alec Rankin’s name is legend among the Western Isles. He and his crew have carved a reputation as bloodthirsty and ruthless. But when he rescues the distraught lady from certain death, Alec’s life takes an unexpected turn.

Desperate to get revenge on her husband and be reunited with her son, Liza tries to strike a bargain with Alec to gain his help. However, when he responds with an indecent proposal, she is torn between outrage and despair.

He’ll help her, for a sizeable amount of coin … and one night together.

It’s her choice—but how far will Liza go to take back what her husband has stolen from her?

Full of impossible choices, forbidden love, and steam, Jayne Castel’s new series, HIGHLAND SCANDAL, is set on Medieval Isle of Mull and follows lairds and ladies who put everything on the line … for love.
