Love is the greatest magic...

When Highland laird Lucian MacRae of Lyongate Hall leaves his home in northern Scotland to tend business in London, he never expects to meet the one woman who cannot just steal his heart, but might also help him break a centuries-old family curse.

Lady Melissa Tandy is not popular with English gentry – as a half-Scottish lass and a rebellious miss, at that – her wild ways and daring set her apart. Now someone is also trying to kill her. So when a dashing Highland lord insists on rescuing her, she has little reason not to run away with him to the Highlands, and every reason to fall in love.
