Disguised as a commoner, he takes to the road, where he crosses paths with a hapless Scottish lad--who turns out to be a lovely Scottish lass, and none other than the renowned bounty hunter Emerald MacCallum. Realizing they're after the same man and fearing Emerald may be in over her head, Jason resolves to keep her close...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut all Caithren Leslie wants is to be as far away from her new \"protector\" as possible. No matter how many times she informs him she's just an ordinary country girl traveling to see her brother--and definitely not some Emerald woman pursuing a dangerous outlaw--the pigheaded Englishman will not see sense. The road is perilous, but accepting Jason's protection may mean jeopardizing her urgent mission. Not to mention her sanity, her personal property, and worst of all, her heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePLEASE NOTE: \u003ci\u003eThis book is the SWEET \u0026amp; CLEAN version of \"Emerald\" by Lauren Royal.
