A future chieftain discovers love has a power as strong as duty, but is it strong enough to go against his king and his sire?Torrian Ramsay, future laird of the Ramsay clan, learned long ago not to take his family for granted. Without the love and devotion of his sire, he would never have survived the childhood illness that kept him abed for years. Now Torrian is a strapping lad, unrecognizable … unrecognizable as the sickly laddie of his past, but one thing has not changed—he will still do aught in his power to make his sire proud. So when the King of the Scots asks him to enter into a betrothal with Davina Buchan, the daughter of a power-hungry laird, he feels he has no choice. Though Torrian is certain the lass’s family has hidden motives, his sire believes in following their king’s orders, and besides, the marriage will help keep peace in the Highlands.
Then Torrian meets Heather, a wild-haired lass who’s spent the past years living in nature with her wee daughter, away from any clan. With Heather, he discovers that love has a power as strong as duty. To marry as his heart desires, Torrian must prove that the Buchans are not what they seem, but time is not on his side. He will need to rely on his family and friends to help him convince his sire—and his king—that he should be allowed to make his own match.

LOVED IT! Have read more of the Ramsay clan and I want to read them all
The Cousins stories are just as exciting as their parents. I love being part of the family.
I love Keira Montclair she’s the best author!!!
The characters seemed somewhat flat with lots of repetitious angst. I didn’t finish the book.
loved it
Enjoyed story and loved spending time with some of my favorite characters.
I linked this book very much
Great book and great series too
Great story! This was the first book in the series I read. I liked it so much I had to get the rest.
Ended with a cliff hanger on one of the antagonists, which was unsatisfying.
It’s a good book but not a great book.
It was great. I read the whole series and loved them all.
I enjoy stories from another time period. This was a good read.
I didn’t care for the writing. Felt like I was reading a book written for a child. Did not finish.
It was very interesting and good in the beginning. Toward the end it became quite torrid and I did not expect that or want to read it.
Typical highlander read. Not exciting not original. I deleted it which means I’ll never read it again nor will I recommend it.
It’s slow starting but then the main characters grab you. I do have a problem though with men who confuse love with lust and young women who allow it.
