A Woman Born To Greatness

In a time of war, Meridene is just an innocent child, yet she is also the revered Maiden of Inverness, ordained by birth to place the ceremonial sword of Scottish rule in her husband's hands, But Edward I, King of Britain, cunningly betroths her to a lowly butcher's son.

A Man Destined To Rule

Of common blood, yet noble in his dreams of a united Scotland, Revas MacDuff accepts his destiny—while his enraged in-laws would rather kill his young bride than honor such a marriage. Only retreat to an English nunnery saves the young Maiden's life, leaving a boy alone with his vow to one day win her back.

A Passion Fated To Possess Them Both

Thirteen years later Revas will find not a grateful wife, but a fighting fury of a woman who despises Scotland, its clans, and the Highlander who calls himself her mate. Planning merely to seduce her, Revas begins to care. Determined to hate him, Meridene begins to surrender, Now amid evil and treachery, the kindling of love's bright fire can save a great land—or destroy a Maiden's hopes...her soul...her heart.
