Love is the most potent of remedies. The sweeping historical romance
that began with Deception of a Highlander, and continued with
Possession of a Highlander, reaches its dazzling conclusion in this
scorcher set on the Scottish plains.
Alec MacLean returns home after a decade to find his recently deceased
father has let his inheritance fall to ruin. As the new laird, it's
Alec's responsibility to rebuild the castle and restore the lands. He
must also regain the people's trust after having abandoned them so long
ago, a feat not easily done when he fears he's plagued with the same
darkness as his father.
Celia escaped the North Berwick witch trials at a young age, surviving
because of the sacrifice of her beloved caretaker. She's made a life for
herself in the wilds of Scotland where no laird rules, a life where she
heals for coin, a life without love so she can never feel the hurt of
loss again.
When the new laird comes back to claim his land, his determination to
restore order threatens everything Celia has worked so hard to gain,
especially with the undeniable attraction sizzling between them.
Together, they will face all challenges, from the tangle of their own
damaged pasts to the fire-fueled witch hunts sweeping the Isle of Mull.
Together, they will find that the best way to overcome darkness and war
is through the undeniable light of love.
