Synopsis:
In the legendary Highlands, Kara Burns must obey a long-held betrothal and marry Harry, the surviving Gordon heir and Earl of Dunnane, who is but a child. His illegitimate half-brother Ian Munroe helps serve Dunnane and keeps his young half-brother from harm, even if that means saving Kara from humiliation on the wedding night. It is this chivalry that begins a dangerous passion.
Knowing an affair will bring their death if they’re caught, Ian and Kara cannot refuse their love. When treachery arrives, only the unexpected valor of a not-too honest ally and the deeper secret of a distant, lost love will save the earldom and Kara’s love for Ian.
Description
To unite their clans, Kara Gordon is bound by a marriage contract to the McKie family. So when her intended husband dies in a bloody mountain skirmish, she is forced to marry his heir and younger brother, Henry, a mere twelve-year-old boy. Trapped by fate, Kara fears their union--and its consummation. Much to her relief, the new earl is more in need of a mother’s care than a lover’s touch. Yet one man longs for Kara’s caress--Henry’s advisor and protector, his half-brother Ian. His attraction to Kara inflames into a scandalous desire that puts them both in great danger as forces both outside and inside the castle are lying in wait to remove Henry from the throne--by any means necessary. But for Kara, who has never once known the love of another, her feelings cannot be denied. And only Ian’s undying devotion will embolden her to face a future fraught with intrigue--one that may destroy everyone she holds closest to her heart....
