Synopsis

Valan MacLeod’s wicked first wife betrayed him. Her death haunts him like a wraith in the night, making it impossible for him to trust any other woman. One stormy evening fate thrusts an intriguing, young girl into his life. He saves Aria Morrison from a vicious assault and learns she is running to avoid an arranged marriage to Baron Eduard Ramsay, Valan’s sworn enemy.

Valan and Aria take refuge for the night in a cottage by the sea. Her sweet innocence enchants Valan into believing he might be able to love again, and he offers to marry her in the baron’s stead. Her father refuses the match. He uses Valan’s dark past against him and forces Aria to uphold the marriage contract.

Months later Aria’s husband dies, and she comes to Valan begging for sanctuary. Seeing her again, Valan realizes he still loves her, but the naïve girl has changed into a woman with secrets, reminding him of his deceptive first wife. Did she kill her abusive husband? Can Valan trust Aria with his heart?

Desperate to escape an arranged marriage, Aria Morrison flees in hopes her actions will bring her father to his senses, but her plan goes awry. Alone on the trail Aria is accosted by miscreants bent on having their way with her.

Out of the gloom, a shadowy figure comes to her rescue. She soon learns her savior is none other than Laird Valan MacLeod, one of most powerful men in the Highlands. Valan becomes the champion of her dreams. Aria is thrilled when he offers to marry her to protect her from the baron.

Her father thwarts their plan, telling her Valan stood by and allowed his first wife to be murdered. The dark forces at work in Laithclach Castle send Aria running to Valan to ask for sanctuary. After all that happened between them, can she find a way to regain his trust?
