Book Description
Highland love is never fickle... Mairi Douglas’s daily life consists of digging up potatoes and turnips, of cleaning chamber pots, and making beds. And dreaming of a life with the young man she’s smitten with. Until the death of those dreams come about swiftly and painfully when said young man proves himself a faithless wretch. She sends a message out begging for her removal from the keep of Calan Stewart so that her heart can heal somewhere far away from the daily vision of the wretch’s infidelity. Elliott MacPherson, the laird’s cousin has been sent to Clan Stewart’s keep to deliver a message, but most assuredly not the message that Mairi Douglas is expecting. Unfortunately, he bears witness to Mairi’s humiliation which puts him on the wrong side of the sharp tongue of the short-fused red-haired beauty. To complicate matters, he’s to escort her away in the midst of intrigue and treachery while women are vanishing from the highlands without leaving so much as the tiniest of clues.
