A lady with secrets. A gentleman seeking redemption. Can forgiveness be sought for past betrayals?

Flora Grant's return to Scotland went unnoticed. Or so she thought. However, a gentleman from her past arrived, making it impossible for Flora to keep her secrets. She agreed to a truce with the infuriating Scottish barbarian who rattled her emotions more deeply than she cared to admit to. With each kiss he stole from her lips, Flora's heartache melted away. Could she trust him again with her heart?

Lennox Fraser inherited his grandfather's title of Lord Hepburn. A title he had no intention of claiming. Until it proved worthwhile in keeping Flora protected from a madman. He had allowed the woman he loved to stay away for years because of his betrayal. When she offered him a second chance, Lennox sets out to show Flora his love and devotion. Can Lennox prove to Flora that he's her hero?

Secrets are revealed, forcing a couple together under duress. While forgiveness is within their grasp, obstacles still keep them apart. Can they overcome their difficulties to find their happily ever after? Or would their secrets keep them apart for an eternity.
