"Bound by Duty. Fueled by Passion. Freed by Love."

Lila McTavish has always known her fate—to marry the ruthless Laird Duncan MacGregor and secure an alliance between their clans. But as her wedding day looms, so does the crushing weight of a life she does not want. When she flees to the hidden loch, seeking a moment of solace, she stumbles upon Darragh McCloud—a rogue outlaw, a man with a past steeped in betrayal, and the one person who makes her question everything.

Branded a traitor and hunted by his enemies, Darragh has spent years living in the shadows. But when he crosses paths with Lila, he sees a fire in her that refuses to be tamed. She is not just a woman bound by duty—she is a warrior trapped in a gilded cage. And he might just be reckless enough to set her free.

But freedom comes at a price.

As whispers of rebellion rise and the Highland clans prepare for war, Lila and Darragh must decide if their love is worth defying tradition, risking their lives, and igniting a battle that could destroy them both.

When hearts are at war and loyalty is tested, will love be their greatest weakness… or their strongest weapon?

A sweeping Highland romance filled with forbidden desire, daring escapes, and the untamed beauty of Scotland. Perfect for fans of Julie Garwood, Monica McCarty, and Outlander.
