The Lady's Protector (Highland Bodyguards #1)
“She would not complain, she told herself over and over as she held her spine rigid and her head level beneath her cloak’s hood. She would not.
Last night had sorely tested her. After a long and grueling day in the saddle, Ansel had guided Eachann into a copse of evergreen trees away from the road. They’d made a simple camp and eaten hard biscuits and dried meat that Ansel had apparently procured from Mary.
When it was time to hunker down for the night, Ansel had given her a length of bl...ue and green plaid he’d removed from his saddlebag. Taking another thick wool plaid for himself, he stretched out on the opposite side of their little fire and had gone to sleep.
