Arriving too late to save Lord Peter Gerard, Highlander Sigimor Cameron decides the best way he can now repay the debt he owes the Englishman is by rescuing Peter's sister and his young son, Reynard. Of course, Lady Jolene Gerard just happens to be holding the keys to the dungeon in which Sigimor and five of his clansmen sit awaiting execution. In exchange for helping her and Reynard escape the murderous Harold, who poisoned Peter and is trying to gain control of Peter's land and heir, Jolene agrees to release Sigimor and his men. The group sets off for Sigimor's estate in Scotland, but once Sigimor discovers that Harold is hot on their trail, he must convince Jolene that the only way he can protect her is if she marries him. Readers who like their heroes bold and brash, their heroines resourceful and clever, and their romances filled with danger and adventure will find much to enjoy in Howell's latest Highland historical romance.
