when another scot ties the knot de tessa dare

Logan only wants to use the bold English lass and her property to provide for his battle-weary men. She's shocked when Captain Logan McKenzie shows up on her doorstep ready to complete marriage vows. She even inherits a castle as a means to assuage her grief. She writes his letters for the imaginary warrior and goes into mourning when he dies a well-timed death. What a great premise for a romance! Maddie invents a fiance, a Scottish captain, who is conveniently at war so she doesn't have to produce him. and ready to make good on every promise Maddie never expected to keep. He's wounded, jaded, in possession of her letters. The real Captain Logan MacKenzie arrives on her doorstep-handsome as anything, but not entirely honorable. Until years later, when this kilted Highland lover of her imaginings shows up in the flesh. and by pretending to be devastated when he was (not really) killed in battle, she managed to avoid the pressures of London society entirely. Maddie poured her heart into writing the imaginary Captain MacKenzie letter after letter.

One who was handsome and honorable and devoted to her, but conveniently never around. So Maddie did what generations of shy, awkward young ladies have done: she invented a sweetheart.Ī Scottish sweetheart.

She was certain to be a dismal failure on the London marriage mart. On the cusp of her first London season, Miss Madeline Gracechurch was shy, pretty, and talented with a drawing pencil, but hopelessly awkward with gentlemen.
