Suddenly he finds that the life of his ruler is in his hands when he suddenly falls ill. Not knowing what to do, he gets lucky when a young and beautiful girl who is half-gypsy and highly spirited decides to help him out. Enchanted by her, she is forever burned into his heart. Can they fall in love and be together?

It’s not to be known as fate decides to put them on either side of a plot that is designed to get power. Even the baby Scottish queen may be in danger of kidnapping, and the stakes are very high. While this young man decides to spy in order to figure out what is going on and who is behind it he also discovers that the girl that he is in love with has a father that is likely going to be hired for the kidnapping.

The young man is in between a rock and a hard place, as his loyalty to his country as well as his desire for the girl that he loves are tested to a greater extent than he could ever have imagined. Why does love have to be so difficult?

So now it is up to her to prove his innocence by either finding proof or catching the real thief.

Iain had a vision of a Border rider galloping on a dark horse in a storm looking for his twin sister. Now she must become an outlaw along the Spanish highways in order to intercept a messenger that is bringing a death warrant for Iain. On the way, she meets a dark and dangerous border deputy named Rowan Scott who has pledged to uphold the law. With a strange and dark past, the stranger agrees to help the raven haired girl even though he thinks she is a Highlander thief.

However, Rowan Scott falls in love with the girl despite himself. Now they are going to look for Mhairi’s brother who is being held in jail so that he can be free instead of being hanged to death. She’ll do whatever she has to and break any law to either save him from the fate or prove that he did not do it, fighting any and all obstacles that come up along the way along with the new man in her life who will do anything that he can to protect her, including lay down his life.

This exciting book is full of adventure and action and even love. Will Rowan and Mhairi end up together and save her brother? They are running a desperate race against time to accomplish their goal of setting him free one way or another. Even if they have to risk being hanged themselves to do it. Read this historically set novel to find out for yourself what happens and if Mhairi is able to save her brother from being killed for a crime that he never committed.
