Duncan Campbell is a natural born leader, possessing all
the attributes for a Highland chieftain except for one:
legitimacy. Forced from the Highlands for a crime he
didn’t commit, Duncan has earned a reputation as the
fiercest, most skilled mercenary on the continent. Vowing
to restore his name and clear the cloud of treason hanging
over his head, Duncan returns to the Highlands to find the
one person who might hold the key to his freedom: the
woman he’d once loved who’d betrayed him. But when he
surprises her swimming in a loch, he finds himself facing
the bad end of a pistol.
Told she was impulsive her whole life like her mother
who’d destroyed their family when she’d run off with an
Englishman over twenty years ago, Jeannie Grant had never
believed it—until she met Duncan Campbell. The bastard
born son of a chieftain was not a suitable husband for the
daughter of a powerful Highland chief, but Duncan made
Jeannie willing to risk everything. She gave him her
innocence and he failed her, forcing Jeannie to learn the
hard way what happens when you follow your heart. Now
Jeannie is shocked to find that the brigand she’s shot is
the same man who broke her heart all those years ago. But
the hard, ruthless man is nothing like the charming young
scoundrel she remembers. When their attempt to prove
Duncan’s innocence uncovers a deadly secret, not only
their lost love, but their lives hang in the balance.
