From the USA Today–bestselling author of Surrender to the Highlander. "Brisbin's nicely crafted romance beautifully renders its characters' growth." —RT Book Reviews

Marian Robertson rescued a child and destroyed her reputation. Now, to keep her family safe, she must marry the stern, dark-eyed warrior negotiating a truce between their clans—and risk her heart to protect the truth.

Manipulated into marrying the exiled "Robertson Harlot," Duncan, peacemaker for the MacLerie clan, finds his new wife's courage and spirit make it impossible to resist her. But will he put his honor at stake to free her from her past—and claim her love forever?

Praise for the MacLerie Clan series

"[A] richly emotional and splendidly sexy medieval romance." —Booklist

"The well-drawn atmosphere, as well as Brisbin's fine storytelling and grasp of the social nuances of the era, are what lift this from an ordinary romance with a predictable, easy solution to one with a satisfying 'happily ever after' ending." —RT Book Reviews
