Publisher Description
"This kind of story is the reason why people are in love with the highlands and the mythical men and women who once roamed the moors."—Kerrigan Byrne, USA Today bestselling author
No one ever accused Kerr MacAlister of being a nice man. Everyone would agree, however, that when the laird makes a promise, nothing can stop him.
Isobel MacKinnon once believed Kerr MacAlister would be her forever. Now, after years of secrets and heartbreak, the proud laird is back and intent on winning her—no matter the cost. But Isobel has her own plans and a fierce will to match his. When rumors swirl of Isobel’s impending elopement, will Kerr risk everything to steal her away, plunging them both into a world of peril, or will he risk losing her forever?
Dive back into the enticing world of The Sons of Gregor MacLeod with a second chance romance that sizzles.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
McLayne's gripping fifth Sons of Gregor MacLeod romance (after Highland Captive) brings the dangers of 15th-century Scotland to the forefront as a warrior seeks to win over the defiant heroine. Spirited Isobel MacKinnon is enamored of Kerr MacAlister but, valuing her independence, she's determined to thwart his efforts to marry her. She cooks up a scheme to dupe him into thinking she's eloping with another man. But Kerr pursues her and soon discovers her ruse. Alone together in the wilderness, the pair grow closer and their attraction builds as they navigate the woods and fight off assailants. After the pair marry by handfasting in a life-or-death moment, Kerr decides to return to his clan to root out a traitor among his people, and Isobel stubbornly remains at his side despite the further danger this decision puts her in. The well-crafted love/hate relationship between the sparring but well-matched central couple creates electricity, and McLayne conjures an alluring historical backdrop to their love story. Highland romance fans will have trouble putting this one down.
