he was never meant to be his … until one Yule changed everything.

Marjory Stewart is the reckless eldest daughter of one of Scotland’s most powerful men. Her father’s arranged her match to another influential laird—but it’s not him she wants.

No, it’s the man who has served her father faithfully for years now: Captain Harris Drummond.

Ever since he saved her from an ill-intentioned suitor, and didn’t betray her to her father, she’s developed a fascination for the strong and silent warrior—one she knows she shouldn’t act on.

Meanwhile, Harris is waging a secret war of his own, a yearning for Marjory. He knows he must fight it. He can’t touch the Duke of Albany’s daughter.

But as snow falls over Doune Castle, a series of events bring Marjory and Harris together, and before they know it, they’re playing a dangerous game.

One that can only end in ruin … for them both.

NEVER MEANT TO BE HIS is a spicy standalone novella set at Doune Castle in Medieval Scotland. Dive into a breathtaking tale of forbidden love and yearning between two people from different classes at Yuletide.
