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.

Good book i would read it again.
This was a very enjoyable read. It explored what is now called celiac disease. I found that very interesting. It was entertaining, had some steam and of course had an HEA.

I loved this book!
Fantastic
I really enjoyed this book and the characters. I liked that Torrian is not the typical highland character that I usually read about. I look forward to reading the other books in the series
I really enjoy her books have read all of them and particularly love how the characters from previous books all still have appearances and and to the continuity. I also enjoy the plots creative, and interesting.
There is a whole series of these books and they are very romantic. Very pleasant reading!

Loved it
This author never disappoints. Awesome!
Excellent read
Loved this book and I’m reading the 3rd one in the series. Really enjoy the strong female roles and the loving males.
Loved it!
Enjoyed reading this novel even when things did not go well. As a fictional book some of the outcomes were tragic for a woman in that era.
I loved this book and had a hard time putting it down. I would recomend reading it and the others in the series.
Love this author. Very good read well
Worth a second read later on.
This was a wonderful story of related families in Midieval Scotland. The twists and turns are interesting and draw the reader into the story and its characters.
This is torrian and heather’s story. He is a strapping lad now and the future Laird of the Ramsay Clan. The king has decided he should marry Devina Buchan to forge a piece for the clans, but he meets Heather and her wee daughter. can he prove the alliance is a ruse and keep Heather as his. Read to find out. Another great read.
This was such a wonderful story – a honorable, future Ramsay Laird & a young woman with a small daughter. Torrian & Heather had a lot of obstacles to climb but never gave up on the love they felt for one another. I highly recommend this book & the entire series, you won’t be disappointed!
