Surprisingly, Lady Sorcha McLeod isn't upset when a masked
rider storms through her sister Adela's wedding and
snatches Adela up for a dramatic kidnapping. In fact, she's
sure the man was Sir Hugo Robison, because that is, after
all, how she planned it. But her best-laid plans didn't
only go awry, they went into total chaos, spearing Sorcha
to ride out by herself to rescue her sister.
Hugo, although he had nothing to do with the kidnapping,
feels guilty because, well, he did lead everyone to believe
he had feelings for Adela and he can understand why they
thought he was the kidnapper. In addition, he just can't
let a dangerous woman like Sorcha go riding off by herself --
the good Lord only knows what kind of trouble she'll find.
Ms. Scott never fails to satisfy readers. Sorcha is a fun,
hard-headed character and is a perfect match for Hugo. I
highly recommend this book, as well as all the others in
the series.
Lady Sorcha Macleod is certain that the man her sister
Adela loves, the dashing Scottish Knight Templar Sir Hugo
Robison, is the masked rider who kidnaps Adela on her
wedding day. When she learns he is not, she sets off to
rescue Adela with Hugo in hot pursuit. On the road with the
irrepressible Sorcha, Hugo soon discovers a woman of fire
and beauty, a woman he longs to touch and taste-but his
honor forbids it, because he is bound by his vow to marry
Adela. As a cruel mastermind plots to steal the Templars'
storied treasure and keep Adela for himself, Sorcha and
Hugo will risk everything, even their own destiny, to save
her and to protect the Templars' long-held secret.
