The Lady and the Knight — Lois Greiman

As children three cousins have made a wish for true love upon a magical dragon amulet, little realizing how daring their destinies will be as Highland Brides.

Alone in the world Sara Forbes has little left to her but the dragon amulet's glow, and her oath to protect a motherless infant, the bastard son of Lord Haldane: the innocent babe nestled in Sara's arms is his only living heir. Now she must shelter the sweet boy from harm on an arduous journey back to the Highlands. But there is another along the road -- a noble knight on a rescue mission who cannot resist a damsel in distress.

Sir Boden Blackblade is sworn to see his Lord's heir returned safely to its father. But from his first meeting with Sara, he owns instantly that his will is no match for her beauty, grace and determination to keep the child safely in her care. Each of them owes loyalty elsewhere -- but their burgeoning passion is a white-hot force that cannot be denied. Torn between duty and desire, Sara and Boden must search their souls if they are to live as one and fulfill their magnificent destiny.
