Scottish Highlands, 1728. Quickly wedded against her will, Sophie MacCarran is held captive in a Highland lair of Jacobite rebels. Nothing in her convent upbringing prepared her to marry a Highland rogue. Looking for an escape, she uses her best weapon—her saintly nature. Sophie makes Connor MacPherson's life a living hell by creating heaven around him—gambling that her sweet feminine influence in his ruined castle and den of thieves will soon send her packing.
But Connor secretly yearns to leave the brigand life behind and claim his lost title and home. He turns the tables on Sophie's plans, even as his remarkable bride works her natural magic on his carefully protected heart.
