Beloved Angel — Victoria M. Noxon

Bethany MacKay is plagued by visions and an unusual gift for healing. She searches for the strength and courage to save her beloved Highlands. Facing certain death should the secret of her “gifts” be revealed, she vows to keep her silence -- even from the handsome Highlander who unwittingly captures her heart. Duncan MacLean allows no woman power over him. Experience taught him they're faithless creatures whose false words weaken and destroy. And then he meets Bethany and is captivated by her beauty and spirit. Yet, beneath her brave fa§ade, he senses a fear she tries desperately to conceal. Blinded by his need to protect her, Duncan is unaware that he's the pawn in a deadly plot of blood and revenge. By the time he fully understands Bethany's “gifts” of selflessness, will it be too late to claim the heart of his Beloved Angel?
