"The Forest Bride" by Susan King is the second installment in The Highland Secrets Series, but I found it captivating as a standalone read. This series revolves around sisters, with this particular book focusing on Margret's journey.

Lady Margaret Keith faces a perilous situation when her escort group is attacked. Determined to rescue the Scottish king's daughter and retrieve a stolen seeing stone, she seizes an opportunity during an archery contest. Disguised as a boy, she inadvertently injures a lord, escapes into the forest, and is apprehended by the local justice – a man who broke her heart years ago. As they reunite under his custody, their romance is reignited.

This novel mixes historical romance, peril, and faery enchantment unfolding against the rugged Scottish Highlands. Join Lady Margaret on her adventurous and risky path, delving into a narrative of love, loyalty, and redemption with magic sprinkled in.
