by Laura Strickland

Overview

Disgraced in her father's eyes, Isobel Maitland travels to Scotland, determined to purchase her sister's happiness at the cost of her own.

The King has decreed he must settle and take a wife. And when he steals the alluring woman betrothed to his enemy, Dougal MacRae sees a way to both answer the King's demand and obtain the revenge he has sought so long...

Editorial Reviews

As well as creating a fascinating historical world, and engaging characters, Ms. Strickland has also created some brilliant lines of dialogue and a few laugh-out-loud moments, to ease the tension from the underlying violence of much of this story. And rest assured the story (and the historical period it is set in) is very violent. Sex is also an integral part of this story. Although it isn't described explicitly, it is central and key to the plot.
