Synopsis

Following her wildly popular Callahan Brothers trilogy, national bestselling author JoAnn Ross begins the sparkling Stewart Sisters trilogy with this fun, sexy riff on the classic movie To Catch a Thief -- with a Scottish twist!

Lily Stewart is busy planning the summer Highland Games at her family's Great Smoky Mountain resort. So the last thing she needs is some arrogant, demanding Scotsman -- no matter how sexy -- arriving to film the annual festival. It's bad enough that he's constantly interrupting her days -- but even worse that he's tempting her to rev up her nights with a Highland fling.

Filmmaker Ian MacDougall MacKenzie is actually there to steal back the Brooch of Lorn, which has gone back and forth between the Stewarts and the MacDougalls ever since it was ripped from Robert the Bruce's tartan in 1306. But when Ian realizes Lily has stolen his heart, he wonders whether love can prevail once she discovers he's been deceiving her all along....

About this title

From the Author

When I was six years old, with an only child's self-importance, I informed my parents that Besty Wetsy was no longer enough; I must have a baby sister. A year later the first of my three sisters was born, forever changing my life. Having always written about families, I enjoy exploring the complex bond between sisters who are, at the same time, each other's mirrors and opposites, sharing the same DNA, the same family history, and the same hatred of those scratchy wool Christmas sweaters from Aunt Charlotte.

In Out of the Mist (which is a late title change from the Firefly Falls listed in the back of Magnolia Moon) Lily Stewart -- the youngest sister and family cheerleader -- lands in the middle of a centuries old family feud when a devious and sexy Scottish jewel thief tempts her to rev up her life with a Highland Fling during her family's Highland Games.

I've traveled all over the world, but the moment I first saw the misty green Smoky Mountains, I knew I'd come home. Welcome to Highland Falls; I do hope you'll enjoy your visit.
