Without word in months, she must make certain her family is safe, then she can return to England to join the convent she has sworn to pledge her life. But then her escort reveals his true self—he’s a Highlander and his kisses are more seductive than the sweetest of wines.What is a Highlander to do when he falls for the daughter of his enemy? And what is a lady to do when she cannot trust her heart?
