✦ Synopsis

A ruthless knight, a fearless bride--destiny forces them together, but can love conquer their icy hearts?

With the laird of the MacQueens on his deathbed, Robert Bruce sends Torsten de Graham to secure the MacQueen keep, Lochlan Hall, and to wed the headstrong daughter of the dying man to bring the stronghold into Scots' favor. Married already to honor and duty, Torsten, known for his ruthless and unyielding nature, heeds the king's command, but he'd sooner face English captivity than marry a woman infamous as the 'Killer of Men,' accused of dispatching three prior suitors. Expecting a man-eating battle-ax, Torsten is unprepared for--and not at all impervious to--Raina MacQueen's delicate beauty and mesmerizing blue eyes.

Against threats to the people under her care, Raina MacQueen is compelled to wed the man who so effortlessly breached Lochlan's walls. Though she fears little, the icy ruthlessness in Torsten de Graham's eyes chills her to the bone. It's clear he holds her in contempt, believing all the sordid rumors that she'd dispatched three husbands-to-be already. She finds some solace in his apparent desire for a distant and superficial union, actively ensuring it remains so by steadfastly asserting her independence, alternately dismissing him and seeking to repel him.

And yet, an undeniable attraction and a threat to Raina's life will drive them into each other's arms. Amidst rising danger and unexpected revelations, Raina begins to wonder if Torsten de Graham might be the only person she can trust.
