Lady Deidra Wentworth had been sent away to Scotland as punishment for her behavior at Canterbury. If she had refused, her dowry would have been taken away, and even her beautiful face couldn't have made up for the humiliation. She had been off balance in Scotland. They didn't follow the same rules of society as the England did, and she quickly discovered her haughty attitude and powerful name meant nothing. When her Scottish escorts practically stripped her of all her comforts, including her maid, she had to learn a new means of survival. As the handsome Alec McGregor systematically broke down her defenses and stole her heart, she had to decide whether her dowry and her place in society were more important than the love of her life.When Laird Alec McGregor, of the clan McGregor, and the Marquess of Falkland went to Edinburgh, it had been to retrieve his prized Sheffield Frisians, not to be an escort to a spoiled brat and self-absorbed English lady. Though she was a beauty, her tongue was sharp. He refused to tell her who he was until he had broken down her defenses and seen the person inside. When he whisked her off to his hunting cabin, instead of delivering her to her relatives, he risked strife between the two clans. Now he must not only fight to keep the Deidra that only he knows, but fight her relatives to keep her forever.
