About Highland Princess

Action, adventure, and romance combine in a tale of fire and ice during the age of the princesses, when all of Scotland's warring kings had to be the sons of princesses, and the women fought alongside their men. Using her keen intelligence and lightning fast reflexes, Princess Bera has bested all twelve of her big brothers in combat, but must use all her keen intelligence and skill to free nine of them from a rival clan's dungeon before the Dark Knight can do so--and claim Bera as his reward. In a world where trust can spell disaster, both Bera and the Dark Knight guard their hearts, but eventually find a treasure worth more than riches and power.
