When he has lost all hope, a lass winds up in his castle.

Laird Altair Sterling, the last of the immortal brethren, is more of a myth rather than an actual ruler of the clan. Altair’s castle feels like a cold prison cell, where his tortured soul is condemned to wander forever. No one can hear the man’s heart screaming for liberation—for a sweet, quiet death.

Running from a forced betrothal and the loveless marriage that is sure to follow, Laura Raleigh will find herself seeking refuge in Altair’s castle, and in time she will find it in her heart to call the mysterious Laird’s prison her home. When her past comes back to haunt her, the only path for her is the one her heart indicates; by Altair’s side.

Her decision, though, is heavy with consequences which threaten to fall upon the shoulders of innocents. She will have to pay with her heart, and that is already claimed by the fearsome and immortal Laird, who is willing to sacrifice everything for her love.
