Three months after escaping an English prison, Kenan Macdonald's been taken captive. Again. Only this time, he's been taken by a green-eyed slip of a lass. The crafty maiden snuck him a sleeping draught in hopes of convincing the Highland chief to help save her clan. This lovely creature could certainly be the devil . . . and oh, he is tempted.
Tierney MacNicol is desperate. She's on the verge of being forced into marriage to a vicious brute who's determined to take over the MacNicol clan. Her only hope of escape is to find another man to marry her—and fast. But convincing the brawny, towering chief of Clan Macdonald isn't going to be easy. And her last, most desperate plan requires a near-unthinkable approach that sends her pulse skittering: seducing Kenan.
Tierney has a reputation for being rash, almost foolhardy. But with her clan on the brink of destruction, she'll do whatever it takes to protect those she loves—and the secret she's been hiding from Kenan. Even if it means an all-out war among the clans . . .
Contains mature themes.
