Book excerpt: Isobel MacLean fears she can't protect those she loves. Due to a violent attack in her past, she'll do anything to keep them safe—except marry the infuriating Grant MacDonald, heir to the MacDonald laird. She wants justice for her family, not a damn husband. Unfortunately, we don't always get what we want... Forced to wed the lass responsible for his friend's death, Grant MacDonald is determined to tame his hellion wife. On a mission to Edinburgh to prevent war, sparks fly as they spar with each other, and Grant is starting to wonder if maybe his wife is a wee bit misunderstood. He'll need to use every tool in his arsenal to distract his alluring wife from her quest for vengeance...before it's too late for them both.
