He wields a powerful blade, but her weapon is the mighty quill.

Bridget Ogilvy is the daughter of the king's chronicler and harbors a deep secret that no one can ever know. She's been writing the Highland Chronicles in her father's stead since he's no longer able to do the task. If discovered, her father's life, as well as her own, could be on the line.

When Highlander Caleb MacKeefe takes an interest in Bridget and starts getting too close, she needs to guard herself against his constant questioning. While she enjoys his attention, she must protect her secret at all costs. The king commands that her father record the events of the Leader of the Lairds competition, and Caleb is the one chosen to escort them there.

While Caleb struggles to unravel the mystery that surrounds Bridget, more problems arise. Someone is trying to sabotage the contest. Caleb, being trusted by the king, is tasked to act as a spy to uncover the culprit.

With lives at stake, decisions must be made that involve both the head and the heart. But can Caleb push his feelings for Bridget aside in order to do the king's bidding of finding and stopping the saboteur before it's too late?
 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Bridget Olgilvy is the daughter of the "Highland Chronicler". He has been tasked by the King to write the history of the Clans.  Everyone wants their brave deeds entered in that book. Unfortunately she has been writing the stories since her father has been ill.  If the King finds out a woman is writing them, there could be dire punishment.
Caleb MacKeefe is jealous that his whole family have been written about but not him.  Just because he's not a huge warrior like some of them, he has his own talents.  The family even tease him about his pet.  The delightful Slink.  
Never under estimate the little guy.  
The games, Leader of the Lairds is underway, in the presence of the King and something strange is happening.  
Who is responsible and can they be found before someone is killed?  
An exciting story with non-stop action and fabulous characters.  If you have read any of the other books in the series you will recognize most of the families involved but you can still enjoy this book on it's own.  
Great fun.
