Handpicked by Robert the Bruce to help him in his quest to free Scotland from English rule, the Highland Guard is an elite fighting force unlike any the world has ever seen. They are the best of the best, chosen for their superior skills in each discipline of warfare. As the tides of war turn, one elite warrior is all that stands between victory and defeat.
Embedded deep behind enemy lines, Arthur βRangerβ Campbell is Bruceβs secret weapon as he wages his final assault on the enemies who stand against him. Recruited to join the Bruceβs secret elite fighting force for his prized scouting skills, Arthurβs razor sharp senses and ability to blend into the shadows make him the perfect spy. But when this shadow warrior must infiltrate the clan of the chieftain who murdered his father, his heart is locked on revenge. Inside he faces unexpected resistance from the sweetest of obstaclesβa honey-haired siren who is his enemyβs daughter.
But the vivacious, enchanting Anna MacDougall is a woman whose skill at uncovering deception rivals his own.
Intrigued by this ruggedly handsome newcomer to her fatherβs forces, Anna accepts the challenge his determined indifference to her arouses. Though anxious for the war to end and yearning for a quiet life with a good man to love, Anna is drawn to this mysterious knight whose eyes devour her but whose words push her away. But as danger, treachery, and the threat of looming war draw them closer into each otherβs passions and secrets, a warrior made of steel must make a choice from the heart: love or revenge.
