Kaid MacLeod’s clan has been dealt a staggering
blow, leaving many of their kin slaughtered where they
stood, including his father. Haunted by the fact that he
couldn’t save them, Kaid craves vengeance, but not
through combat. Too many souls have been lost already.
Instead, they will settle for peace by whatever means
necessary. Their only chance is to kidnap his
archenemy’s intended, who has been rumored to be
traveling through Scotland, and use her to negotiate an end
to the bloodshed.
Ever since she was young,
Delilah Canterbury has had to think on her feet and forge
her own path in life, a path she has always hoped would end
in finding a place at King James’ court. Her dream
comes true and she not only gains the King’s favor,
she’s invited into his rooms for an enchanting
evening. And yet, the next thing she knows, she’s been
cast out, her dreams and her reputation in shreds. She is
saved by a team of female spies, who take her in and teach
her their ways.
Now Delilah must go on her first
mission, impersonating Lady Elizabeth, a noblewoman’s
daughter and the fiancée of a powerful Scottish
Laird. As planned, Kaid takes the bait and she’s
poised to entrap him…but she can’t help but
wonder what it would like to be with him in truth.
Will she give in to her desires and risk everything? Could
a love born under deception ever grow to anything more than
pain and strife for those souls who yearn for anything but.
