Lachlan Sinclare is on a thankless mission. Off to retrieve
the homely, strewish daughter of a local clan leader so she
can be married off, Lachlan just wants to get the job done
and return home. But once he reaches the convent where the
woman has been staying, the plan changes drastically. The
daughter has died, and the handful of nuns left are without
protection. Lachlan vows to stay until help can be found -
and hopes that his attraction to the beautiful Sister Terese
will fade. Alyce can't believe it! Her father actually plans
to marry her off, after all she's done to spread rumors of
her ugly looks and nature. Hiding her beauty away in a
convent seemed like a perfect plan. But now this warrior
refuses to leave. Little does he know that the ladies don't
need any protection. Pretending to be nuns should have been
enough, but now Alyce is in a bind of her own making. Can
she convince the men to go before they expose all the
'convent's' secrets...and before Lachlan steals her heart?
