From a USA Today–bestselling author, a Highland warrior is assigned to escort the woman he loves to her arranged marriage in this medieval romance. Ciara Robertson has loved formidable Highlander Tavis MacLerie all her life. She watched, brokenhearted, while he married and lost another. Now, finally of marriageable age, Ciara throws her heart at his feet. . . . Tavis knows that innocent Ciara thinks she’s in love with him—but she deserves better. Painful experience has proved that he’s a far better warrior than husband, and he’s determined never to marry again. Her dreams shattered, Ciara accepts another man’s hand. Ordered to take Ciara to her husband-to-be, Tavis is tormented—and tempted—every step of the way. . . .
