Will these Highland vows and vengeance hold the promise of love and redemption for Breckin and Eva?

Breckin Buchanan, a renowned warrior, is in no mood to placate the king, especially when he is commanded to take a border baron's daughter as his wife. As he gives himself to the pursuit of protecting weakened Highland clans and finding out the truth behind his sister's death, he has no patience to woo a wife, especially a coddled, willful lass. But at the first sight of Eva Scott's beauty, he might reconsider that.

Eva's life drastically changes when she's forced to marry the utterly handsome and stubborn warrior. She is used to an extravagant life where she's doted upon and tended to by servants, but now, she must learn to fend for herself. Born to a life of opulence, Eva quickly realizes that wealth has little meaning to the Highlanders. As she tries to adapt to the Highland way of life, she is determined to prove that she doesn't need Breckin, his clan, or anyone. But that becomes most difficult when his ardent attention awakens a longing for his touch, acceptance, and love.

From the moment they meet, neither can deny their intense desire and stormy passion. Breckin finds himself drawn home more often and discovers Eva has turned into a determined woman. Eva hopes Breckin will reveal his heart but doing that might take drastic measures on her part, especially when he is reticent about his life.

As Breckin gets closer to discovering the truth behind his sister's death, his vengeance ignites his need to destroy his enemy. His purpose wavers when Eva's life is in peril and he is unable to rescue her. Eva's courage and resilience enriches him and gives Breckin hope that there is more to life than war.

Will his bittersweet revenge force him to accept Eva and give her a place within his clan and his heart?
