Ailsa MacPherson
She married a stranger. He was hiding her family's enemies. Elspeth MacLeod has heard the rumors: her new husband is a brute, a warlord, a man who killed his own brother. But when she arrives at his Highland keep, she finds a scarred, silent man - and a secret she was never meant to discover. Torquil MacRae is sheltering the men who murdered Elspeth's mother. He has his reasons. But Elspeth, bound by a marriage of convenience she never wanted, refuses to look away. As she uncovers Torquil's plan for justice, she must decide: is he a monster, or the only man brave enough to give her the revenge she craves? In the Highlands, secrets are deadly. But so is love.
