The Spinster's Convenient Laird

She was sold for her silence. He needed her voice. Beatrice Harlow has spent thirty-two years perfecting invisibility — and hiding the one thing no one suspects: she can read. When her father's debts leave her destitute, she's bartered north to a Scottish border laird who needs a wife with a head for numbers. Ewan Dunbar expected a meek English mouse. Instead he got a woman who catches his thieving steward in a week and forges enemy letters with the precision of a royal clerk. As rival clans close in and a king's summons threatens to take her south, Beatrice must choose between the safe anonymity she's always known and a life of dangerous, passionate usefulness beside a man who sees her exactly as she is. She was never meant to be seen. He can't look away.
