There are sixteen MacDougal brothers, all tall and fierce warriors, most with blue eyes and dark hair. They stoutly defend what’s left of the once-mighty MacDougal empire. Their father did little but create many sons, half of them without bothering to marry. The MacDougals have a history of pairing up to find wives, a process made easier due to rumors of an unusual ability to bring much pleasure to lucky women…

Laird Somerled has had to be fierce to keep his brothers alive and the feuding Campbells at bay. His twin, Niall, has a sunny disposition. He must find a wife to produce sons yet he refuses to leave Clan MacDougal land.

Twins Tearlach and Rory raised their younger brothers in the absence of mothers at Duncladach Castle. Tearlach is a true warrior, loving the bracing wind off the sea. Rory, though equally fierce, brings laughter to hard times.

Torquil and Ewan were born under a Beltane moon the same night to different mothers, neither of which were married to their father. Ewan has ‘the Sight’. Torquil has many scars, inside and out. They avoid others.

Cormac‘s bull-headedness is balanced by his calm brother James. Bastards, they are fostered out to the Earl of Caithness at Castle Girnigoe. James is studious, a natural courtier. Cormac would rather fight than talk.

Practical Angus and wild, red-headed Gillis, born to their father’s second wife Maeve, were fostered out to Laird Cameron of Inverlochy Castle, where they ate well and got into a fair bit of trouble, often with help of the heir, Darach.

Identical twins Malcolm and Duff, also born to Maeve, stayed at Duncladach to protect the clan. Malcolm tends to watch silently while Duff plays the fool.

Finn, the only blond, and Dougal were born to sisters within weeks of each other. They enjoy causing trouble.

As the youngest, Artair and Zander feel a need to prove themselves worthy, to themselves and Clan MacDougal.

Captive Bride (Highland Menage 1) Fiona’s a feisty tomboy with nothing to lose but her life. Gillis and Angus have nothing to offer but themselves.
Captive Love (2) Fiona’s uncle, Lord Lovat, threatens to dissolve her marriage with Angus and Gillis unless they prove themselves worthy

A Lady’s Seduction (3) Alana Sinclair must wed to save herself from a brute. Her only option is to seduce Cormac and James, against her powerful father’s wishes.
A Lady’s Vengeance (4) Alana vows vengeance yet Cormac and James declare it’s their right to protect her. She promises to obey them but when the opportunity arises…

An Eager Widow (5) Kiera MacKenzie needs a husband and Duff MacDougal seems perfect. Her plans unravel when his identical twin, Malcolm, shows up with ideas of his own…
The Perfect Wife (6): Now married and living at Kinrowan Castle, Kiera will be the perfect wife to Malcolm and Duff MacDougal. Unfortunately she finds it difficult to behave…

King’s Pawn (7) and King’s Knight (8): Tearlach and Rory are sent to Sterling Castle, escorting Isabel Graham, a ward of King James VI. Isabel is desperate to chose her own husband but the king may not approveā€¦

Bedding the Enemy (9) and Loving the Enemy (10): King James VI marries, by proxy, Laird Somerled (and his twin, Niall) to a strong-minded Campbell lass, notifying the bride and groom after the fact…

Three more pairs of MacDougal brothers also need wives and have stories to follow…
