Set against the dramatic backdrop of 1785 Scotland,
Elaine Coffman delivers her most breathtaking novel ever.
In this unforgettable romance, a marriage that starts off
to defy fate, just might end in love....
Lady Meleri Weatherby is desperate to escape the
unthinkable: marriage to a man she does not love, a man
she knows to be unspeakably cruel. In a bold move, she
breaks off her betrothal to Lord Philip and flees her home
in Northumberland, vowing to marry the first man she
meets, never considering the consequences of such a show
of independence.
Robert Douglas has been dealt an equally dark hand by
fate: the proud Scot must take an English bride or lose
his ancestral home and noble name. It seems an impossible
situation, until destiny puts him in the path of a strong-
minded English lass with a will to survive that equals his
own.
Marriage is an ideal salvation for both. Meleri will be
safe from her vengeful fiancé in Beloyn Castle with the
Douglas clan, and Robert will be able to keep all he holds
dear. But neither has bargained on a heartless man who
will go to any lengths to seek revenge, the tenacity of a
stubborn ghost and the most powerful force of all: love.
