The man she despises may be the only one who can heal her shattered heart.

As the daughter of a powerful Laird, Halle Mctavish dreamed of a grand marriage and a life filled with joy. But when the ruthless McGregor clan killed her betrothed, her dreams turned to ash. Consumed by hatred, Halle swore to see the McGregors pay for their crimes.

Fate intervenes when Bryson McGregor, the enemy's own son, is captured and brought before her clan. While others clamor for his demise, Halle sees a chance for something more—a possibility for peace. Defying her kin, she tends to Bryson's wounds, daring to hope that healing him might heal the rift between their clans.

But her world is shaken when she learns that Bryson may have been the very man who took her beloved's life. As he recovers, Bryson reveals a side of himself that Halle never expected—noble, sincere, and perhaps as weary of the bloodshed as she is.

Torn between vengeance and a longing for peace, Halle must decide: can she trust the enemy who may have destroyed her happiness, or will extending her hand lead to even greater betrayal?

The path she chooses could end the strife between their clans—or ignite a passion that consumes them both.
