He’s a Highland assassin. She’s the noblewoman he abandoned nine years ago. Can forgiveness give them a second chance at love this Christmas?

The Scottish Highlands, 1308. Infamous mercenary Hamish Dunn betrayed a powerful clan and is now pursued by killers almost as ruthless as himself. Deep in the snowy wilderness, a Highland faerie convinces Hamish to travel to the Border Lands for one last job.

Deidre Maxwell has a dangerous secret. She’s not the widow she claims but a disowned noblewoman with an illegitimate daughter. After being cast aside by Hamish, the man she loved, she’ll never let herself be hurt again. And she’ll keep her daughter, Maeve, safe from the pain of rejection whatever the cost.

When Hamish visits the warden of the West English March, he finds more than a job. The lass he never stopped loving is now the family’s wet nurse and has a daughter. Hamish wants to protect them both, though he has been hired to murder Deidre's father. Deidre strives to keep him from learning of his child, but she can’t resist the dark Scot’s draw.

Can the magic of Christmas and a child’s love heal the wounds of the past and finally give this improbable pair a happy ending?

Highlander’s Christmas is a historical romance novella set in medieval Scotland and connected to the enthralling Called by a Highlander time travel romance series. If you like reunion romances, secret babies, and dark alpha heroes, then you’ll swoon over Mariah Stone’s tale of forbidden love.

I read this one at the very end of the series. The next time I read the series of 10 (8,9,10 are on the way - preorder now), I will read it’s in its intended order after Highlander’s Love. That was totally my doing. So take note- read them in order. The authors books take you through the clans living in Medieval Scotland during the wars of Independence. She describes the settings and feelings of the characters so well, that you will think you are there watching behind a tree like Sineag perhaps. She’s a time meddling fairy who loves to eat human food. Be sure to read her story first. I absolutely love how all of the characters are weaves into each book in the series. Questions at the end of a book? What happened? No worries. The answer may be in the next book.

You’ll love the story of the star crossed lovers Hamish and Deidre.

Follow the story of Hamish and Deidre, and their daughter Maeve. Separated for nine years and he does not know about his daughter. One last job and he has enough wealth to settle somewhere and become a laird himself. He finds Deidre working for a wealthy family as a wetnurse and he is horrified. He has to get her back to her clan, safe and happy again. Suspense from finding he has a daughter, to dealing with her father, and whether to leave them again will keep the pages turning. It was beautiful how Maeve turns her father toward his little family. The ending is idyllic and wonderful to envision.

This was part of a bundle I purchased called TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS IN A HIGHLANDERS ARMS. As of the writing, this is not mentioned in the blurb previously published.

My heart went out to the h in how the H treated her, from the beginning of the story until almost the end. His reason why he couldn't love anyone, made sense in the beginning. As the story progresses and he learns more about the h and what his decision did to her, he still was selfish.

Parts are unique in this story. I was surprised after 9 years she was a wet nurse. Of course my mind was all over the place in what this meant. But, not all is as it seems - lol.

Nasty villains, and some close to the h. I liked how our H flipped what he was hired to do.

Lovemaking, outside of marriage, heat level 4 out of 5.

No cheating, HEA, romance was off page when the story starts and spice. (ljb)

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2021
This is a beautiful second chance Highland romance. Diedre and Hamish have both suffered through painful times especially in the years that they have been separated. Hamish broke her heart and ruined her life when he abandoned her, even though he thought he was doing what was best for her at the time. Now that they have met again, and truths are bared, can they find enough strength, forgiveness and love to become the family that they both have needed and wanted all these years?
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Christmas Story of two lost souls
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2021
This is Hamish's story, we met him in Book One of Called by a Highlander Series. Highlander's Captive.
Hamish is a loner he hires out to rich nobleman for money. He does things for them. Most are underhanded like stealing, blackmail, spying even killing . He is a very big strong man; most are afraid of him. But a few who know him well know he is hard on the outside but has a soft heart for children and women. He would never hurt either or allow others too.
When he was just a young lad the only person who he cared about who cared about him was left to die. He vowed then the only way not to be hurt again was to never let anyone close to him to never love other. Then you can't be hurt stay in control.
Deidre Maxwell is the daughter of The Laird of Maxwell. She is a very independent lady Her father has taught her things women are not allowed. She learned sword fighting, reading and writing. She sees no reason she can't do everything a man does.
When she meets Hamish, the attraction is strong for both of them. She has never met anyone as carefree as Hamish and he has
never seen a Lady able to do all she does. They spend much time alone and she see no reason she can't have everything she wants with him. When she goes to tell him her great secret, she is sure he will marry her and they will always be together.
Instead, he turns from her leaving her alone and on her own. He cares for her but knows leaving is the only way to keep from being hurt again. He is sure her father will marry her to a man of her class and she will be fine.
Nine years later he is told of a job, and when checking one it he runs into Deidre. She is a wetnurse working for wealthy family.
She is working with her daughter to make whatever life they can.
Hamish is shocked by what he sees. Deidre wants nothing to do with him. Her secret is the only thing that keeps her going.
There are lots of secrets in this story. It is a fast read with much loss, drama, love, fear, mystery just about everything kind of emotion you can think of.
It is set at Christmas time and does have a happy ending just maybe not the one you think and by who.
I love how the feelings of both Hamish and Deidre grow and suffer to reach what each needs to be happy.
There is a great set of characters that help make it all work out. Hope you get a copy .
I received and ARC from the author and want to thank her. This is my honest opinion and am voluntarily giving it.

I've read 3 of the " Called by a Highlander series " and enjoyed them.
This novella is an excellent addition to the series by reinforcing Clan connections and solidifying the back stories of the characters.
