Read the next in the family saga of the historical Scottish Grant and Ramsay clans.
She convinces her brother's best friend to help her stop a war. But will they provoke one instead?
Kyla Grant once believed her sire, the legendary Alexander Grant, was invincible, but his brush with death changed her mind. The whole clan is still reeling from Alex's battle injury when a new threat arises from their long-time rivals, the Buchan clan. Kyla, convinced that the Grants cannot take another battle, is desperate for a peaceful resolution. Her plan is to make a personal appeal to the Buchan's only living child, Davina, but she knows her parents would never allow her to risk her safety...
Finlay MacNicol is always quick with a joke, but life has never given him less to laugh about. His mother is dying, and yet another battle is on the horizon. When his laird assembles a group of warriors for a scouting mission to the Buchans, Finlay does his duty and joins them. He thought he knew what to expect from the mission, but he certainly didn't expect that Kyla would sneak along, or that his laird would assign him as her protector. Kyla's beauty has always affected Finlay, but her bravery and sweetness soon stir deeper feelings.
After visiting Davina, Kyla becomes determined to rescue the lass from the clutches of her abusive sire. Finlay agrees to help her, but there's a risk they may provoke a war rather than prevent one.
