A rugged Scotsman is torn between honor and desire in this breathtaking medieval romance from the USA Today–bestselling author of Taming the Highlander.

Innocent Margriet Gunnarsdottir carried a heavy secret. She faced a perilous journey to the wild and distant north of Scotland, and her safety lay in her adopted disguise—a nun's habit! But her only protector, a proud, rough-hewn Highlander, made her ache to share her crushing burden.

Rurik Erengislsson had sworn to see her home and unharmed. A woman promised to the service of God should be shielded and honored—not desired! Yet Rurik was tempted beyond reason to make this beautiful waif his own.

Praise for the MacLerie Clan series

"[A] richly emotional and splendidly sexy medieval romance." —Booklist

"The well-drawn atmosphere, as well as Brisbin's fine storytelling and grasp of the social nuances of the era, are what lift this from an ordinary romance with a predictable, easy solution to one with a satisfying 'happily ever after' ending." —RT Book Reviews
