After a hit and run, my gold medal dreams are forced on hold. I can’t walk, let alone snowboard, and a wheelchair is my new way to get around. Everything I worked for has been destroyed. Then the world’s number one rock star strides into my life. 

The second stand-alone in the Wild Scots series takes you from the stunning scenery of Scotland to the busy city of Manhattan. Perfect Storm involves a steamy hot one-night stand, a surprise pregnancy, a dedicated alpha-male hero who’ll stop at nothing to get his girl, and a heroine with big plans of her own. 

He's a wounded hero in recovery. She's being blackmailed. Elise: I fled to Scotland after an incident on a movie set left me reeling. But my solace is short lived. Someone is blackmailing me. With a threat so awful I can't ignore it. Helped by a handsome, scarred Highlander, I could figure out the identity of my blackmailer. But trust is hard to come by when everyone wants a piece of me. And betrayal comes all too easily. Swoon with Cameron and Elise, and continue with the brooding, tough, protective men of the mountain rescue and the beautiful women who tame their hearts.

There are three things I know as fact: There’s a million dollars in my bank account that isn’t mine. I planned a vacation fling, but the guy in question has a twin brother no one told me about. I kissed the twin by accident. Bam, cue fireworks and sparks. Now, if the universe could do me a solid and help me do kiss him on purpose, I could forget my money troubles. 

Lying low and staying off the radar is a matter of life or death for my family. We escaped just in time to our Scottish hideaway, and safety is far from assured. I shouldn't be flirting with a strong-willed lass. But Effie is good for my stubborn, unhappy sister, and spending time with her is no hardship when she sets my pulse racing. I can handle being tormented. I've survived worse.

I wasn’t always the strongest woman, but I’d do anything for my child. Including chasing down the man who rejected her before she was even born. I won’t accept his lies that he didn’t know about her. For that to be true, it means someone betrayed us both. One thing is for certain. Max and I are broken beyond repair. He'll never care for me again, but I’ll make him love our daughter. 

For too long, I've been alone. Just me and my daughter. Keeping her safe is everything, so taking a job in the remote Scottish Highlands suits us fine. I shouldn't need anything more. Yet, I'm beyond distracted by a lass. Smart, beautiful, and living right next door, Cait McRae makes it clear she's not interested. Every sly glance tells another story.

A Highlander walks into a bar.... My father's conference, to be exact. The Scot is huge, overbearing, and his gaze sets me on fire. He wants to take me home to see his mighty tower. I'm tempted. I really am. Except I just had a proposal from someone else. One that could give me everything I wanted. Apart from love. But when did I ever have a need for that?

It was the blood I noticed first. Running down the neck of the man on the ferry. Then his bruised knuckles, dark eyes, and arrogant smirk. The handcuffs came last. No one else paid him attention, but I couldn't look away. Or deny my instant lust. I had no idea he was being imprisoned on the remote, dark Scottish island I knew well. Or that he'd been kidnapped, not arrested. I went from that naïve girl on the boat, dreaming of stolen kisses, to the one who held the key to his prison cell. When heat turns to hate, all that's left is ruin.

Beth: I know, I know. Running a guy over isn’t the best way to get his attention, but in my defence, my driving skills are all I really have. And impressing the tall, dark, mysterious man who barely speaks was far too tempting to pass up. Except women like me don’t get to date earls. I’m not what he needs. I grew up in foster care, he was raised in a palace. No matter the power of our heated looks, or how much my blood surges whenever he’s around, whatever we have will be short-lived. Heartbreak is all I’ve ever known. He’s welcome to the pieces.

One dance at a stranger’s wedding. That’s all it took for me to fall for Alexis. And then? Disaster. Another man - her boyfriend - gets down on one knee, and proposes to her. I never thought I’d see her again. Years later, my brothers and I need to get our new Wilder Resort off the ground, and Alexis is the only one savvy enough to help. But she's changed since we met. She’s gun shy. And still, there’s a spark between us that will not die. We both fight it, until we don’t. Until, history repeats itself. The same guy who took her away from me is back to do more damage.

Taylor has lived with threats and blackmail her entire life. Either she behaves like the perfect, dutiful daughter, or gives up her most desperate wish. With her father’s election on the horizon, the pressure is on to appear as the all-American family, including her marrying the man her father chooses. Wasp has worked hard, building his name as a photographer, but he’s never forgotten the woman who first stole his heart. One hot kiss leads to an indecent proposal and a cross-European bucket list tour. But Wasp is no longer the boy Taylor once knew. Her hot Scot has his own plans.

Nerdy coder girl? Check. Massive debt? Double-check. New job working for three Silicon Valley billionaires at a cryptocurrency startup? Ugh. Triple-check. There's Jude Cauthon, chief technical officer of the company, nerdy and sweet and awkward in all the right ways. Owen March, on the other hand? He’s the cocky know-it-all CEO. Then there's Furio Rossi, the Italian billionaire who just invested in our company. Can we get this tech startup off the ground and turn it into a billion-dollar company? Or will all our hard work—and the love we've found along the way—be for nothing?

I never had a thing for football players. That is, until I met Dallas Lockett. He’s the star player for the Salt Lake City Stallions. Football’s hottest, swooniest, most charming quarterback. A rich and famous playboy who could have anyone he wants. Yet for some reason, he wants me. The first big problem? Dallas has a strict no-girlfriend policy during the season. A policy which he - and his teammates - make very clear to me. But based on the way he looks at me in the locker room, that policy is being stretched to its limit.

Elite. Excellence. Entitled. That's what Sparrowood Academy looks like from the outside. Depraved. Deceitful. Destructive. Those on the inside know it's rotten to the core. Reform school would have been easier, but Eden and the K-Boys didn't have a choice. The higher-ups need the brats at Sparrowood kept in check - and they may be the only ones who can do it.... If they don't get destroyed in the process.
