Fleeing with only her bow, horse, enormous pet wolf, and the
cryptic clues hidden in her mother’s medicine journal,
healer Meg Boswell gallops north towards freedom, running
from the man who falsely accused her mother of witchcraft.
Cursed with magical healing abilities, Meg knows that if
she’s captured, she will die like her mother—atop a blazing
witch’s pyre.
Winter winds rip across the Highlands, pressing Chief Caden
Macbain forward in his desperate plan to save his clan. He’s
not above using an innocent woman to bargain for peace if it
keeps his clan from starving. But Meg isn’t who Caden thinks
she is, and when she kills a man to save the clan, he must
choose between duty and her life. For although he captured
her to force a peace, Meg's strength and courage have
captured Caden's heart.
