Mist Warrior (Legacy of the Mist Clans)

By Kathryn Loch / Genre: Medieval, Historical Romance, Romance / Rating: 4.2 out of 5 stars (74 reviews)

When he was twelve, his name was Branan Strickland. He was the heir to the Wardenship of Inglewood, a title to govern a Royal Forest and the land around it. But Branan’s father was an abusive sod, beating Branan and his mother for sheer sport.

Until the night when his father’s fist landed on the side of his mother’s head – a wound that would kill her in a few short hours. Devastated, Branan spent those last hours with her. Just when he thought his world couldn’t shatter any more, his mother told him the truth of his heritage.

Branan was not Strickland’s son, he was the son of a Scottish Laird, Raulf MacTavish. Strickland had murdered Branan’s true sire and forced his mother into marriage.

Raina MacTavish had just learned she was breeding when Strickland killed the man she loved more than life. Had she not carried Branan, she would have willingly died. Raina had told no one but Raulf of her breeding. After Strickland bedded her, a couple of months later, Raina announced her pregnancy. She did so only because she feared if Strickland knew Branan’s true sire, the blackguard would slay her babe – the last link to her beloved husband.
