Rhiannon Ruthven's father and brothers had done many bad things to their neighbors and others. Though she had no part in it, she was still judged on their behavior. Assumed to be a bad seed, it now seems she's not even wanted at the abbey. Mother Agnes sees a different path for Rhiannon -- becoming nursemaid to a young girl in need.
After returning from war, Camden Lockhart found his brother and sister-in-law dead and his niece missing. Camden knows who did it and he's determined to see all the Ruthvens killed. When he hires an assassin to do away with the Ruthven family, Camden does not expect to find a female Ruthven under his protection when his niece is returned home.
Camden is torn between not trusting Rhiannon and being attracted to her at the same time and knowing that she feels the same way. But he knows one thing for sure, he needs to stop the assassin he hired from hurting her without her finding out what he's done. When a family secret puts his niece and Rhiannon in jeopardy, he's willing to do anything to protect the ones he loves. Rhiannon loves Camden and does everything she can to prove she's trustworthy, even giving up her life to help his clan.
WARRIOR'S LADY is heart-melting passion, a powerful story of hate turning to love and being able to trust again. This tale brought a tear to my eye and a pang to my heart as I flipped the pages. This is definitely a book that historical readers will love.
Camden Lockhart vowed to eliminate the Ruthven clan after
they had destroyed his family. All he had left was a small
niece and the legacy of the Charm Stone she carried, but
no one knew where the little girl was.
Rhiannon Ruthven came to the abbey to escape the brutality
of her brothers and find solace. Instead she found the
orphaned Violet Lockhart in need of an escort to her
uncleβs castle. Rhiannon didnβt know it, but she would be
walking straight into a nest of assassins.
Watching Rhiannon nearly sacrifice her own life to save
anotherβs, Camden knew he could not condemn her to death.
Heβd have to protect her from the very men heβd hired to
kill her. Scottish legend said the Charm Stone had the
power to heal, but was it strong enough to unite two
wounded hearts?
