He was made to lead men into war.
She was sent to stop her clan from being swallowed by it.
Kenan never wanted to become War Chief. A warrior by blood and instinct, he understands the battlefield, but command demands something far more brutal than courage: the ability to choose who lives, who dies, and what must be sacrificed so the Highlands can survive.
Eilidh Jardine arrives at Kincaid Keep as an envoy from the last neutral clan, armed with careful words, sharp intelligence, and a desperate hope that diplomacy can still hold back ruin.
Kenan trusts steel.
Eilidh trusts reason.
Neither is prepared for the pull between them.
Every council chamber argument, every guarded glance, and every late-night moment of honesty draws them closer to something neither can afford. He is the man forced to make choices she fears. She is the woman brave enough to see the cost beneath his command.
But as Roderic’s war tightens around the Highlands and Eilidh’s own home is threatened, love becomes more than comfort. It becomes a risk, a witness, and a vow neither of them can make lightly.
Because the last sunset before ruin may also be the first light of something worth fighting for.
Perfect for readers who love Scottish Highland romance with wartime tension, fierce diplomacy, morally burdened heroes, intelligent heroines, emotional slow burn, forbidden longing, and love forged in the shadow of sacrifice,
The Last Sunset is the fifth book in the Oaths of the Iron Highlands series.
