“Melody Thomas is an author to watch! She will sweep you away!” —Karen Hawkins Dangerous passions collide in the Highlands in *Claimed by a Scottish Lord,* the second book of the exciting historical romance series author Melody Thomas began with *Beauty and the Duke*. The story of a desperate—and desperately handsome—noble Scotsman who takes his enemy’s daughter prisoner, only to discover that she’s everything he ever wanted, *Claimed by a Scottish Lord* brims with Melody Thomas’s trademark wit, adventure, and searing sensuality. If you’ve missed Judith McNaught’s historicals—or simply adore curling up with a classic Kathleen E. Woodiwiss or Stephanie Laurens romance—then you just might have found a new favorite in Melody Thomas.
