Therefore, when is charged by him with stealing the virtue of his daughter in the Scotland Court, he decides to steal his daughter instead. After seeing his brother getting married and settles, Cullen too wishes to have a good wife. He also thinks that marrying Bronwyn McQuade will help to end the prolonged war between the two clans.
Also, he seems to have fallen for the beauty of Bronwyn after looking at her only for once. But, Bronwyn does not wish the same way and believes that she will not receive the punishment for the things that she has not done. She even does not wish to live along with the resentful veterans of the McQuade wars. Cullen McJames might be a very brave and handsome man, but he has a lot to learn about the fighting spirit of a woman. He intends to teach Bronwyn what she does not know about him and seems determined to make her fall in love with him. The plot of this novel is also full of charming romance and delightful characters.
