Hired By The Highlander - Mountain Men of Scotland
A Grumpy Single Dad, a Tender Nanny, and a Little Girl Who’ll Steal Your Heart.
There’s something about the Highlands ...
I’m thrilled to announce the release of Hired by the Highlander, the newest standalone romance in the Mountain Men of Scotland series. This one is for every reader who melts for brooding single dads, slow-burn longing, and stories where found family feels like fate.
When Grace arrives in the remote Scottish village of Kilbrae, she is happy to finally reunite with her younger sister, Candy, who is now married and has her first child.
She’s also accepted a position as nanny to Fraser MacLeod, the widowed eldest brother of the MacLeod clan. With her teaching background, the job should be straightforward. What she finds is far more complicated… and infinitely more heart-tugging.
Grace is hired to help his daughter, but healing this broken family might cost her own heart in the process.
What to Expect:
✨ Grumpy x Sunshine
✨ Single Dad with Walls Made of Granite
✨ Nanny Trope with a Dash of Scottish Forced Proximity
✨ Found Family & Healing Hearts
✨ A Stuffed Highland Cow Named Clover (you’re not ready)
✨ Slow-Burn Chemistry That Sizzles
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Scottish Highlands, Hired by the Highlander is a deeply emotional story about second chances, unexpected love, and the kind of quiet moments that say everything.
If you’ve read the previous MacLeod brothers’ stories (Tempted by the Highlander and Outfoxed by the Highlander), you’ll love seeing a few familiar faces, but Grace and Fraser’s story stands fully on its own.
Whether you’re here for the Highland setting, the tender family bonds, or the emotional slow-burn that builds into something unshakable -- Hired by the Highlander is ready to sweep you off your feet.
Meet Grace Donnelly
She didn’t come to the Highlands looking for love. She came for a job. What she found was a family she never knew she needed.
American-born, smart, and full of quiet resilience, Grace steps into the rugged world of the Scottish Highlands with a practical mind and a heart still healing from its own losses. She has a teaching background, a protective streak, and just enough courage to face down the grumpiest widowed, single father in Scotland, if necessary.
What makes her special? Grace has the kind of warmth you can’t fake. She’s gentle without being weak, kind without being naive. And this is despite the emotional walls Fraser MacLeod has built around himself. Slowly, she begins to see the man behind the brood.
Clothed in cozy layers and modest curves she doesn’t flaunt, Grace is the kind of heroine who wins hearts by simply being there. She's steady, tender, and deeply human.
Meet Bonnie MacLeod
She isn’t quiet. She’s brave. And in her world, that means anything is possible.
Fraser’s young daughter, Bonnie, hasn’t retreated into silence. She's retreated into imagination. With her ever-present stuffed Highland cow named Clover and a head full of fantastical ideas, Bonnie navigates grief and change the only way she knows how ... through bravery, boldness, and big stories.
She’s a chatterbox with a mission. One minute she’s a castle guard protecting her stuffed animal kingdom, the next she’s inspecting Grace’s pockets for snacks or secrets. Her imagination is her armor, and behind her big green eyes lies a heart still learning to trust again.
What makes her unforgettable? Bonnie doesn’t just light up a room — she changes its temperature. Her wild, whimsical view of the world breathes life into the MacLeod household … and slowly chips away at her father’s grief-hardened walls.
