For a Highland lass born to a laird, life is one of luxury and ease…until it comes to matters of the heart.

Pretty and headstrong Colla McGowan has never gone hungry, her father is Laird Dunmore, but she also has no say when it comes to the man she’ll spend her life within marriage. Her father has made a decision without even consulting her, as is his right, and she’s doomed to wed a violent brute who has made his intentions known regarding his bride-to-be. With a shiver, she knows that she must flee to her uncle…through the wilds of Highland Scotland.

Hanoverians and Jacobites

Colla has been raised a Jacobite, so she has much fear of the English soldiers and their crass ways. She needs a guide—a man who’s already captured her heart, handsome Beiste Brewster. He’s worked for her family as a farrier, but she has no idea that he’s been in love with her longer than she could imagine. Now they are on the run from enemies and “friends” alike, forced to figure out who is truly a friend and who has other intentions toward the lovely daughter of the rich laird.

A Stunning Secret

When a startling secret about Beiste’s past becomes known, it will change everything for him—and for Colla. It could mean that their relationship, once taboo, can have a chance at lasting happiness, but only if they pair survives their Highland adventure…and gains the approval of her stern father.

Should Colla trust the stablehand with nothing to offer in return for her heart—except his own strong hands and a pure heart? Or is she being foolish to go against her father and risk being disowned?

Does Beiste have a chance with the woman of his dreams, or will she choose the luxurious life of prosperity that he feels like she deserves instead of him? Can he even ask it of her?
