Publisher Description
A sweeping Highland romance full of adventure, passion, and sexy Scots. When forced to choose between duty and honor, this Highland laird will find a way to have both.
Laird Darach MacKenzie promised never again to let a woman near his heart after his betrothed betrayed him. It sparked an intense feud between his clan and the Frasers. With all-out war on the wind, Darach can't be distracted—not even by a sweet and charming lass who desperately needs his help.
When Darach rescued Caitlin MacInnes from the clutches of vile Laird Fraser, she vowed to never let men or misery rule her life again. With Darach and the MacKenzie clan, Caitlin finally feels safe. But when Laird Fraser shows up to claim what's rightfully his, or go to war, Darach will have to use all his brawn and brains to protect Caitlin—even if it means losing his heart.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
McLayne (the Sizzling, Sexy Santa Barbara series) takes readers to 15th-century Scotland in this captivating series launch, her first historical romance. In an effort to unite five Highland clans, Gregor MacLeod fostered a son from each. One of those foster sons, Darach MacKenzie, is now a respected MacKenzie laird when he rescues Caitlin MacInnes from the clutches of the Frasers. Caitlin claims not to remember her last name when Darach takes her back to his castle. Though Darach has no desire to marry after having been betrayed by a lover, he cannot remain unaffected by the beautiful Caitlin, who charms both his clan members and his animals. The attraction between Darach and Caitlin is enhanced by the harsh beauty of the Scottish Highlands. When his enemies appear at his doorstep demanding Caitlin's return, Darach knows he can't give her up. McLayne has created a novel rich with romance and imbued with realism, made complete by a host of multidimensional characters and the promise of future series installments.

One of my all time favourites
Ive just finished reading this…a third time! Love the romance and the humour had me both laughing and crying. A beautiful story of innocence even after some harsh life lessons.
