Known for his wicked wit, fierce loyalty, and skills in battle,
Robert "Rebbie" MacInnis, the Earl of Rebbinglen, loves freedom and
has no plans of marrying anytime soon. But when his father, a
powerful Scottish marquess, signs a contract betrothing Rebbie to
an earl's young daughter, he is furious. If he has to marry, he's
determined to choose his own bride, though he has no inkling who he
would wish to wed until fate intervenes to remind him of one
fair-haired, nameless beauty and the passionate night they spent
together years ago. A night forever etched in his memory. Lady
Calla Ferguson, a penniless widow with a young son, is forced to
seek employment as her cousin's companion in order to pay her late
husband's massive gambling debt. Having been ignored or mistreated
most of her life, Calla has become a resourceful survivor who will
stop at nothing to get what she wants-safety and security for her
son and herself. Wealthy merchant, Claybourne cares little for the
money the Earl of Stanbury owed him; he simply wants the earl's
beautiful, voluptuous widow and he'll do whatever it takes to get
his hands on her, even kidnapping and blackmail. When Rebbie
happens upon Claybourne abducting Calla, he rescues her and hides
her in a secluded castle deep in the wild Scottish Highlands. Calla
conceals her passionate spirit beneath reserve and duty, along with
closely-guarded secrets which, if exposed, could ruin both her life
and her son's. Years ago, she lost her heart to a dark-eyed
stranger she never thought to see again, but now he's her
protector. Rebbie craves another pleasurable night like the one
they shared in the past, and she cannot resist the fiery passion
that echoes deep in her heart and soul. Soft but strong, Calla
sparks within Rebbie a desperate hunger and a need to protect her.
But will her secrets tear them apart?

Jessie's home, along with Gregor MacBain, a man Jessie was formerly
handfasted to, she is thrown off-kilter. She never wanted to see
either man again, but now they are vying for her hand. Torrin
promises to protect her from the devious MacBain, but how can she
trust Torrin when she has witnessed how lethal he is? The more time
Torrin spends with the strong and independent Jessie, the more
determined he is to win her heart. Once she allows him a kiss, he
feels her passion flame as hot as his own. After she knows Torrin
better, Jessie finds herself falling for the fearsome Highlander.
But the odds are stacked against them. The sinister MacBain is bent
on kidnapping Jessie, making her his bride and killing Torrin,
while Jessie's conniving younger brother, Haldane, is determined to
use Jessie to take over the castle in his older brother's absence.
Jessie fears she can never be with the man she loves, while Torrin
will do everything in his power to ensure they are together
forever. In his heart, she is the only lady for him.
