Highland Gladiator
- eBook
Synopsis
When Lor Careston's quiet Highland village was attacked and burned, he felt helpless against the raiders who destroyed his home. Seeking revenge, but lacking the fighting skills he needs to execute his mission, he sets out to find the Ludus Caledonia—a mysterious fight guild that turns men into warriors.
Lor trains hard, proves himself in the ring, and earns a place with the very clan that decimated his home, having decided to set his plan for revenge in motion from inside the clan. But his plan didn't include Isabail Keith, a fiery lass who prefers broadswords to embroidery and isn't afraid to stand with the warriors of her clan. Lor thought the Keiths were his enemies, but when Isabail is threatened, he'll have to decide what he's willing to risk for the woman who has captured his heart and the clan that has become his home.

Highland Gladiator is an immersive read. Set in Medieval Scotland, Lor and Isabail are from different clans but find themselves in love. Separated after Lor’s village is raided, Isabail finds her gentle blacksmith in the fighting pits of the Ludus Caledonia. If she can convince her father that Lor is the warrior their clan needs for protection, then they can be together again. Lor though, still loves feisty Isabail, but is not for sure which clan can be trusted and which clan deserves his retaliation. Full of action and sweet romance, I look forward to reading more in the Scots and Swords series.
