A little gold band can mean so many things. It is a symbol of love, a symbol of devotion, and it can be a symbol of acceptance. For Grace MacEachin, a gold wedding band is something she only dreams of. She was known as the Scottish Song Bird, a talented singer who was sought after by many, but to Richard Lynsted, Grace was a thorn in his family's side that needed to be removed. She had threatened his father and uncle with blackmail for a wrong done to her father years ago, and it's up to Richard to put a stop to all the foolishness. But when he meets the beautiful songstress, Richard begins to feel something he has never felt in his life...a stirring inside his heart. Could this be the beginning of love? Abandoned by her mother at a young age, and shunned by her father, Grace has lived a hard life. As an actress, she was considered the type of girl that no man would offer a marriage ring to, not when they might could have her for a wager. Grace desperately wants to win back her father's love, and to do so, she must convince Richard that his father and uncle were the cause of her father going to prison for ten years. She persuades him to accompany her back to Scotland to hear her father's side of the story, fully convinced that all will be well once the truth comes out. But Richard's uncle, Lord Maven, is keep the truth of the past in the past, and does his utmost to keep Richard and Grace from reaching Scotland. But he hadn't counted on the blossoming feelings the two rather mismatched young people had for each other, or how fiercely Grace was determined to reach her father.
