A tension-laced Highland romance where independence is pitted against alliance and vows are tested by betrayal in blood-soaked medieval Scotland.
In dangerous times, learning to love a stranger is the greatest risk of all.
Erik Ross has wanted Fiona Rose since he first glimpsed her. Now laird, he needs her wit, beauty, and resourcefulness to strengthen his tenuous hold over his disgraced sept of Ross. Winning her hand will join his clan with hers before rapidly escalating discord can burn across the Highlands.
Though Fiona Rose has a secret that could assure her autonomy, wedding Erik Ross—a man whose fierce demeanor disguises a tender heart—tempts her beyond reason. But can the future he offers entice her to cling to him, and to the oath she'll give everything for, including her chance at freedom?
