A Scottish aristocrat and her sexy new footman each have shocking secrets in this Regency romance by a USA Today–bestselling author. An old maid—that's all Lady Christina McMorlan, daughter to the Duke of Forres, is to society now that she's past thirty. She hosts her father's parties and cares for her siblings, knowing she'll never have her own home and family. She has no time to pine, however. By night, she's The Lady, head of a notorious whiskey-smuggling gang that supports her impoverished clan. They're always one step ahead of the revenue man—until Lucas Black shows up. Rejecting his title and the proper society that disparaged his mother, Lucas earns his living running a successful gambling house. He's also a spy, charged with bringing down the Forres Gang. He thinks The Lady's just a bored society spinster. She thinks he's a lost child playing at rebellion. And when the truth comes out, it's not just their love on the line . . . Praise for Claimed by the Laird "The perfect read on a warm summer's day at the park or an evening listening to the crickets. It's sweet, charming, and enough romance to satisfy those sweet urges!!" —Addicted to Romance "The perfect combination of intrigue, passion and romance. . . . The romance was perfectly paced . . . an intoxicating mix of heart-warming tenderness and delicious sensuality." —Rakes and Rascals
