Publisher's summary

Before his father offered to shelter Wylie's two sons, nothing could lure Wylie Macpherson back to Scotland. But after a bitter 25-year exile, his homecoming proves harder than anticipated. Instead of the scorn he expected, he's faced with the relief of a struggling village long awaiting his return. All Wylie wants is to retreat to his ship, yet the tug of his memories and responsibilities is difficult to ignore.

Having lost one man to the sea, Anna Macrae is cynical of men chasing dreams across oceans when everything one could want - family, community, friends - can be found in the Highlands. Though preoccupied hiding her father's infirmity while managing his business in his stead, she can't help but notice Wylie's sons need a parent, and their father is too absorbed in his own grief and anger to notice. As she grows close to them, her traitorous heart begins to spin fantasies of a life not meant to be.

Blindsided by a barrage of painful memories, Wylie pays little heed to the heat building between himself and Anna until he finds he can think of nothing else. Will he flee once again, or will he fight one more battle to claim the sweetest of prizes?

A poignant story of love, loss, and coming home, A Thimbleful of Honor is set in the heart of Scotland's Highlands, 25 years after the 1745 Jacobite rebellion.

Critic reviews

"With two multilayered protagonists and a strong foundation laid for sequels, this eloquent mix of historical fiction and romance will appeal to fans of both genres." (BookLife Reviews)

"Years of resentment and a passionate romance throw a man into turmoil when he returns to the Scottish Highlands in this novel...intriguing until the end." (Kirkus Reviews)

Unexpected gem

I hope the author is working on #2. This was so good. I wish there was a tiny bit less of the misunderstanding situations but the characters were absolutely amazing and the story line was so good.

Great start to a new series.

I liked this book. Some of the plot was hinted at in the beginning of the book, setting up the forth coming series, and confirmed in the end. There were a few surprises along the way that made you wish to continue to the end to see what else would happen you had not imagined.
The story teller contributed to a point of one knowing who was speaking helping you to enjoy the book not as though you wished you had read the book yourself. Can’t wait to listen to the next book in this series.

More audios please!

Took the chance on a new to me author and hit the jackpot. Complicated characters, the hard work of honesty and reconciliation, profound love overcoming inner obstacles. Set in a Scotland devoid of rose tinted treacle and primitive, hairy men, the book kept my happy attention from beginning to HEA. Please, please, keep recording this series.

Love the relationship between Wiley & Hannah/Anna.

It's taken several books to become accustomed to Mr Wyndham's voice. His females always sound wonderful; the main male characters always seem to sound as though they are brooding & lock-jawed while still being incredibly seductive-quite a feat. Well written, sometimes a bit redundant, but overall it's wonderful and it's a clean romance with passion and desire.
