She enchanted him with a kiss — but winning her love would demand all he possessed.
After eight years abroad, Malcolm returns to Scotland with a fortune, a companion even more hardened than he and a determination to restore his inherited holding. But when that companion falls into peril, Malcolm seizes the chance to repay an old debt, trading his own soul for that of his doomed comrade. Knowing … comrade. Knowing his days are limited and determined to leave a legacy of merit, Malcolm rebuilds Ravensmuir with all haste, though he fears he will never have an heir.
A night of violence has left Catriona with no home and no faith in the honor of men. She expects little good from a visit to her lady’s brother, Laird of Ravensmuir, a known mercenary. But the handsome laird challenges her expectations with his courtesy, his allure—and his unexpected proposal. Knowing it is her sole chance to ensure her child’s future, Catriona dares to accept Malcolm’s hand. She soon realizes that this warrior fights a battle of his own and that she holds the key to his salvation. Little does she realize her past is in hot pursuit, seeking to destroy all she holds dear — including the laird who has thawed the frost of her reluctant heart.

One of my favorite authors.
Absolutely love Claire
Very intrigued.
Great story with memorable characters.
Good plot with really intriguing characters
I just love her books. All the ones I’ve read have been well written.
Excellent storyline.
A desperate situation, a chance meeting of the person who will change your life for the better; what better premise for a story to take you on a sweet trip?
Love catching up with these characters.
Great addition to the Kinfarlie series
A little too airy fairy for me.
Would not recommend this book. Very hard read. Have only read a few chapters and I cannot read anymore.
Couldn’t get past the first two chapters.
People can change when love is involved
I loved reading this story. I couldn’t wait to read every book in the series. Each book is a complete story in itself, but they do have a continuing theme of other members of the family. You meet different sisters and their families as you progress thru the series. This book was amazing in the amazing magic contained in this family home site. Enjoy the live and adventure.
I want to know what happens to the characters, but I won’t buy another from this author. Too repetitious. It feels like she’s being paid by the word.
Good read
I would have liked to give this book a 4.5. I really liked the characters. I usually don’t like books with fairies and such but this was a really good read. I definitely recommend reading this book.
