A clan chief's desperate plan to reunite his people may also rekindle an unforgettable passion in this medieval Scottish romance.

To regain control of his fractured clan, Robert Matheson needs bargaining power. Taking Lilidh MacLerie hostage should give him plenty. But Lilidh is no ordinary captive. She's the woman he once loved—and rejected!

Rob's touch is etched permanently into Lilidh's memory. Unaware that he was forced to repudiate their love, she has never forgotten the man who broke her heart all those years ago. Now, looking into the eyes of her captor, she no longer recognizes this fearsome leader. She should be afraid—there's no telling what he will do. But something about him excites and unnerves her in equal measure . . . .
