Read THE GATHERING first to understand the rest. Liam is # 14... Possessiveness such as he’d never known rose up within him and, without thought, he leaned down and stole a quick kiss. She slapped him. Hard. “Who do you think you are?” Liam MacGregor is a ghost in search of adventure, and it’s finally his turn to have some fun. Sure, revenge, family, moving on—these things mean more than anything. But he has a task to perform first, so, while he has the chance, he might as well have fun doing it. And she is his task. Amber. Wildly beautiful and stubborn. He’d never thought to feel this way about a woman. Never believed he’d have the chance. He can’t have her, but for now, she is his to protect. Amber DeLuca wants nothing to do with her father’s illegal activities, or her new bodyguard. She’s on her way to starting a new chapter in her life when a kidnapping and rescue derail her once again. But when Liam enters her life, the fun-loving Highlander makes her laugh. She feels safe, cherished, protected. Falling in love with him is the easiest thing she’s ever done. But what she doesn’t know just might end up hurting her. A NOTE ABOUT THE SERIES: Although the individual stories of Culloden's 79 need not be read in strict order, The Gathering should definitely be read first in order to know what's going on between the Muir Witch and these Highland warriors from 1746. The Reckoning, Number 79's story, will finish the series. GERARD IS NEXT!
