For Princess Gabrielle, Scotland is a land of dazzling beauty but with dark paths, betrayal, and now envy...

With her precious beauty, daughter of one of the most important barons of England, Gabrielle is the perfect bargaining chip for a king who needs peace in the Highlands. Thus, King John arranges her marriage to a noble landowner. However, a marriage that will never take place.

One last burst of freedom and everything changes when she and her guards encounter an inhumane scene. With a shot from her bow, Gabrielle takes a life, saves another, and starts a war. Within days, the Highlands are in turmoil as war breaks out between the clans.

Having come to Scotland to marry, Gabrielle will become entangled in the intrigues of the Highlanders and the English nobles. Underestimating her bravery and superiority may prove fatal. But under the penetrating gaze of the formidable Colm MacHugh, neither Gabrielle's body nor her heart is safe.

A novel that delves like no other into the unyielding emotions of love, hate, and raw desire.
