Title: Highland Justice
Author: Heather McCollum
Genre: Historical Romance
About Highland Justice:
As the new chief of Clan Mackay, Gideon Sinclair knows the importance of maintaining order at any cost. To keep the conquered clan in line, Gideon must mete out ruthless justice or risk losing their precious new peace. But from the moment he meets Cait Mackay—aye, from the moment the sweetness of her lips captures his—all of Gideon’s careful objectivity is well and thoroughly compromised.Cait knows that kissing the brawny Highlander is a dangerous game. It was bad enough she picked his pocket to feed the children in her care, but sometimes a desperate woman must disguise her crimes any way she can. Only her act of deception has made things worse… Because one kiss with the Highland’s most brutal chief leaves her breathless and out of her depth.Now Gideon must choose between his duty and his heart when his lovely thief is accused of treason against the king himself.
Gideon ran past close enough that she could hear him take a breath while she held her own. Past. He ran past.
The crashing footfalls silenced, and she sucked in a soft gasp. Gideon Sinclair had stopped. The small crunch of a footstep came from a few yards beyond her. She’d scoot around the tree to the opposite side, but she dared not move. Instead, she concentrated on becoming a part of the trunk. If only she could grow bark and moss along her back.
“I know ye are here somewhere,” Gideon said. “Your footsteps pounding through the brush went silent.”
Damn. In a full-out sprint, she couldn’t keep quiet any more than he could. Cait looked at the limb above her. Could she reach it with her rope? Climb up there before Gideon descended upon her like a bloodthirsty wolf?
No. Perfect stillness and a miracle were the only ways to outsmart the infamous Sinclair Horseman. When stars started to spark before her eyes in the darkness, Cait parted her lips and drew in a silent stream of air and released it the same way.
She listened to his footsteps as he walked along the trail on the other side of the tree. “Your kiss was cold and hard, lass. And it didn’t distract me enough for ye to escape.”
You are a cold fish of a woman. Benjamin’s words sneered in her memory.
“If ye come out, ye can give it another try,” Gideon said, his voice just on the other side of the thick tree. When she didn’t answer, not even with the crack of a twig, he went on. “What were ye doing up in my room? Did I interrupt a robbery? If you had braved my bedroom for a tryst, ye wouldn’t have jumped out the window.”
He walked a little farther up the trail. Could he make out her tracks in the dim light of the moon? Damn snow made them stand out. It seemed God wasn’t interested in trying to save her from this mess. It was all up to her.
Cait let her breath out slowly, listening to his footfalls crunch in the mix of snow and dead leaves. She nearly jumped when she felt a tug on the coil of rope that she held. Damn. The end had uncoiled several lengths on her run and lay on top of the leaves before the tree.
Cait tried to inhale, but her breath kept stuttering in her chest as Gideon slowly coiled the loose rope, which had become a trail directly to her. He rounded the side of the tree and stopped. The darkness cloaked him in shadow, making his solid form look even larger. Gideon Sinclair stared directly at her.

I don’t want to admit all I did was read for the entire day, but it is true. I needed to get this done. It stinks that someone spends a long time writing, reading and editing and then I come along and devour it in a day. This one is where it ends, so I do get the bows on a few stories that needed wrapping up.
Hannah and Dustin have been through a lot. So here I go with the “I felt” parts- I think Tom-Poppa Judge was the better and more likable parent. I liked Amanda and her “legacy” as Mayor but there were times where I could have slapped the crap out of her. Her interactions with Hannah, at times are SO unsupportive it hurt!
Dustin’s upbringing was finally finished. This kid, being brought up the way he was, should have been a serial killer, but he wasn’t. Dustin’s rush was racing. I learned a bit about sponsors and how crooked people can be in the car world. When he was on his game was when the “anger” took the wheel. He used his rage to be a darn good driver.
Tommy was the semi supportive brother that needed a kick in his *ss too. Bailey, the best friend has always been there for Hannah and they had a great friendship that turned out to be one sided. I didn’t see her story going the way it did in this book, so I was shocked.
This was a great series. You need to read them all together or the cliff hangers will make you crazy! Take my advice.

point guard…the list goes on.) Ginger has been writing and editing for newspapers, magazines and blogs for more than 15 years. She has told the stories of Olympians, politicians, actors, scientists, cowboys, criminals and towns. For more on her and her work, visit her website at http://www.littlemisswrite.com.
When she’s not writing, the odds are high that she’s somewhere near a baseball diamond, either watching her son field pop flies like Bryce Harper or cheering on her favorite baseball team, the Arizona Diamondbacks. Ginger lives in Arizona and is married to her college sweetheart whom she met at ASU (fork ’em, Devils).
Buy on AmazonAfter book 1 ended I got annoyed at the to be continued and opened book 2 Good thing I waited. The ending of one had me SO mad. I can’t say why but I will say that this went in a totally crazy spin. I can say that Mrs Judge-Amanda exceeded my expectations of being a self centered b*tch. Hannah has not had things easy and she did nothing to support her only daughter.
Dustin’s story also took a strange turn. Who would have thought ? Colt did what I thought he would do as well as Trish. Loser parents who let others raise their son.
Tommy and Hannah grow up, mature and learn to deal with each other. It is Bailey that surprises me again. This girl is a pillar of strength and positivity for Hannah.
Another great one! It ends with…to be continued, no fears I got book 3 here

Buy in AMAZON Good book. I’m glad there are 2 more after this. You will need to get them because this ends with To be continued dumm dumm dumm I hate cliffhangers so I never read until the series is finished. I waited a while on this one for that reason. There is also the trepidation that I wont like the book that one of my all time favorite authors wrote. Being honest-here I go:
Gloom follows Dustin wherever his family goes His mother is a drug addict and his Dad is gggrrrrr I can’t say too much but he is a dead *ss loser. The first time he showed up at a race, he watched but never spoke to Dustin. I really thought, when his character was revealed, he was going to want to come in and take money, sponsorships and bring drama. He did a lot of that but it was because he was just a loser. Somewhat scary dealings will come into play. This is the part that was, for me, the best part, a little ATF and FBI story that grows was the opposite direction that surprised me for sure. His “family” is the Judge family and anyone he races with. Hannah and Tommy were best friends with Dustin since age 7. The history is there. A great foundation to build on. For some reason Amanda, the mother is all of a sudden more into the image she has, bothering me. It seems like her and Hannah are drifting.
Solid friendship with Bailey is important too. The girls need each other a lot. The characters evolve into young adults as the story goes on. There is a cliffhanger, which I hate, but it is necessary. Miss Ginger did it again! A must readBuy in AMAZON

Travis Cabrera doesn’t have time for distractions. And the middle of harvest season is the worst possible moment for the busy vineyard co-owner to have a magical meeting with his gorgeous new neighbor. But there’s something about her helter-skelter approach to life that he can’t resist, so the caring vintner vows to get to know her better…
Claire Hansen’s survival skills are half-baked at best. So when the spoiled twenty-three-year-old orphan gets kicked out of the family mansion with instructions to prove she’s a responsible adult, she’s desperate for a get-rich-quick gimmick. And after she samples her sexy neighbor’s welcome pie, the ditzy heiress’s delighted tastebuds launch a reckless recipe-stealing plot.
Accidentally promising his parents that he’ll hunt down an impossibly large loan, Travis can’t decide if playing temporary lovebirds with the girl next door is a diversion or a delight. And though she’s wracked with guilt after learning she’s run off with a long-guarded secret, Claire risks their rapidly growing attraction with yet another luscious lie.

Even though Kaleigh had achieved amazing success, she still dreamed of seeing her name on the front of the books she wrote.
After going through a rough period in her personal life, Kaleigh had found the kind of love she’d spent years writing about. So in late 2021, she made the decision to start over and publish romance novels written about the love she has instead of the kind of relationship she only dreamed about. But this time…she’d do so under her name, Kaleigh Clark.
I learned the hard way that actions have consequences. One misguided night has left me with both physical and emotional scars. I’d hoped transferring colleges would help me heal, but I never expected him to be my remedy.
Hudson Wright looks at me like I’m another trophy to win. A challenge. A game. I should hate him, and I definitely shouldn’t trust him.
The truth is, I’m caught up in his storm.
For the first time in almost a year, I feel alive. When he’s near, sparks ignite under my skin. They’re addictive and make me ignore all warning signs and doubts.
The star quarterback may be used to winning, but I can play games too.
He promised he’d chase me and I promised to run.
The only question is, what happens if I let him catch me?
