BrΓghid NΓ Maelsechnaill has every reason to hate the English. The accursed sasanach took her family's land, starved her mother, and sold her father into slavery in the Colonies. Her hatred grows the night she is taken captive and handed over to a tall sasanach as a sexual gift.
Jamie Blakewell has come to the British Isles from Virginia on business crucial to the survival of the colonies. He doesn't have time for the beautiful Irish woman who catches his eye -- or tolerance for her hatred of everything English. When she is given to him by a corrupt English lord, Jamie realizes he must claim her to protect her innocence. But can he protect her from himself?
