New York Times bestselling author Hannah Howell pens a sweeping romance
set against the breathtaking Scottish Highlands, where a young woman
holding a warrior hostage tries to resist his passionate seduction . .
.
Lady Sorcha Hay is devastated to learn that English soldiers are holding
her young brother captive. Penniless, the only way she can pay for his
freedom is by taking a hostage for ransom herself. Her captive--a
wounded knight plucked from the battlefield--is furious to be imprisoned
by a woman. But nothing will stop Sorcha from keeping Sir Ruari Kerr
enslaved, even as the sight of his bronzed body sets her mind reeling
and her senses afire . . .
With her dark mane and soft curves, Sorcha is everything Ruari has ever
desired in a woman. As she tends to his wounds, Ruari fights the intense
attraction that ignites at her very touch. But he can't afford to lose
his heart to his tempting captor. For when he's finally rescued by his
men, Sorcha will pay dearly for her treachery--and loving her could put
both their lives in peril . . .
