findthatbook | Looking fo historical romance that I read long ago!

I read this book somewhere between 2005 and 2012. I don’t know if it was published before this time period but definitely not after.

The book is a duopoly. It is a historical fiction with a romantic plot central to the storyline. The setting is not modern and felt more medieval. The main female character was the daughter of a nobleman and the love interest was of more common birth. They fell in love but for some reason couldn’t be together. That’s all I remember from book one unfortunately.

Book 2 starts with the main guy character (having felt betrayed by the female love interest) leaving and going back to Ireland or Scotland (I always get those confused in stories). The main female character follows him and tries to win back his love and while in Ireland/Scotland she stays with his family. They fall in love
With her and welcome her but it takes the whole second book to win back the affection of the male love interest as he is pretty cold to her.

I just remember the romantic plot line of these two books being amazing! I know it’s not much to go on but I have hope. Thank you!
