Once Upon a Highland Autumn Cornwall, Lecia

A Highland estate. A determined widow. A gruff gamekeeper who wasn't supposed to make her pulse race. Lecia Cornwall delivers a Scottish romance with equal parts wit and warmth, set against the rugged beauty of the Highlands in autumn. When practical, level-headed Lady Mhairi MacLeod returns to her late husband's estate to settle affairs, the last thing she expects is an attraction to the brooding man managing the land. He's made it clear he wants nothing to do with the gentry. She's made it clear she's leaving. But autumn in the Highlands has a way of changing plans — and hearts. Cornwall writes characters who feel real, landscapes that feel lived-in, and chemistry that builds with every stubborn glance. For readers who like their historical romance grounded, their heroines sharp, and their Scotland atmospheric. Pairs well with a plaid blanket and a dram of whisky.
