Why we recommend it
A wild Highland laird claims a reluctant bride in this atmospheric historical romance. Set against rugged moors and clan rivalries, the forced match smolders from wary hostility into hard-won passion. For readers who love a dark, commanding Scottish hero, the slow surrender of a defiant heroine, and the brooding romance of a marriage neither wanted but both come to crave. Sweeping, sensual, and rich with old-world danger.
