Catriona

Catriona missed the days when wilting gardenias and the unrequited love of her brother's best friend were the worst of her problems. That all changed when she had to add attempted kidnapping and being hit by a car to her résumé of woes.

Catriona MacGregor may look like a wee redheaded Scottish fairy, but a precious pixie she was not. At only twenty-two, it felt like life was passing her by. She did two things with absolute dedication- moon over a man who still saw her as a little kid and work. Forget socializing outside the family. She did feel satisfaction in owning her own nursery and running it with an iron-green thumb, but bad things kept happening to her, and even her brother, Thomas MacGregor, who ran a security firm, couldn't keep her safe.

Coll Barr was in trouble, and it began and ended with his best friend's much younger sister. Catriona had been a thorn in his side for years - and the star in every one of his dirty dreams for the past two. He lost one of his legs in Peru while on a job and only recently came out of his self-inflicted solitude. Now that Coll was close to Cat again, his life became all about evasive tactics until he found out that a dangerous criminal from his past was seeking revenge against him and possibly his family. Evasion quickly changed to close quarters. Now, he had to worry about an outside and an inside threat because if Thomas MacGregor ever found out Coll had feelings for Cat...

Catriona is the final book in the Scottish Lions (unless Mirren MacGregor puts enough pressure on Anne Gregor for her own story).
