Until she awakens on Scotland's shore to a pair of the most entrancing blue eyes she has ever seen.When Sir Brian MacFingal first spots the sun-streaked beauty on the beach, he mistakes her for dead. Soon, however, he discovers a woman more full of life and vitality than he ever dreamed possible. But though he knows he is fit to defend her life--even at risk of losing his own--can such a raw warrior as he ever be worthy of her love?Praise for Hannah Howell and her Highland novels. . ."Few authors portray the Scottish highlands as lovingly or colorfully as Hannah Howell." --Publishers Weekly"Expert storyteller Howell pens another Highland winner." --Romantic Times
