博客來At the hall of a Scottish chief deep in the western Highlands, a bard sings and plays on his harp, spinning tales to the gathered company. Caught in the enchantment he weaves, his listeners cannot get enough of the stories he tells, the next of which concerns a princess and the Scotsman who loves her most helplessly.
Snatched from her beloved home and sent away to marry a man she neither knows nor loves, Caledonian princess Darlei vows it will not break her spirit. Yet her determination to be true to herself is thwarted at every turn, and she begins to fear that in losing her freedom she will lose her very self. The one compensation she can find is a growing friendship with Deathan MacMurtray, the brother of the man she is to wed.
Deathan has always lived in his brother’s shadow, second in the field and in his father’s estimation. His brother will one day be chief, and Deathan must allow him the glory. He’s never minded till now, when a woman of singular strength and beauty is destined to become his brother’s bride.
Her spirit speaks to him with the voice of a shared past, and he swears this once he will do whatever he must to make her his own.
