Sir Payton Murray's reputation as a lover is rivaled only by his prowess
with the sword, yet it is the latter gift that has captured the interest
of Kirstie MacLye. Fleeing a murderous husband who left her for dead,
she vows to expose the man for the vile scoundrel that he is. She also
knows it will take planning, cunning, and the help of a brave, arrogant,
and willing champion. Kirstie only prays that Sir Payton will accept her
challenge.
Risking the ire of his own clan and hers, Payton nonetheless cannot
ignore Kirstie's desperate plea or her captivating beauty. For he knows
that nothing will deter the spirited lass from bringing an evil man to
justice, even if she must do it alone. Joining her on this crusade, he
embarks upon a dangerous quest against a powerful enemy only too eager
to destroy them both. . .
