A powerful knight on a dangerous mission...
Sir Chanse de Bremont is determined to halt the wedding that will upset the tenuous balance of power between England and Scotland. He can think of only one way to do so - take the bride captive. But the willful if beautiful lady is nothing like he thought and more than he could’ve imagined.
A defiant lady bent on escape...
Lady Arabela Graham refuses to wed the brutal man her father intends to place on the Scottish throne. She knows her betrothed is not fit to be king, and she won’t be a pawn in a political game that will surely end in disaster. Yet when a bold, handsome knight appears on the eve of her wedding offering escape, she rebuffs his aid as she is certain he has an agenda of his own.
A desire that can’t be denied...
Chanse won’t take no for an answer and whisks Arabela on a perilous journey, pursuers on their heels. She’s touched by the knight whose tender regard and kisses make her heart sing. As those chasing them close in, Chanse realizes Arabela has become far more than a mission to him - she holds his heart. Will secrets keep these two apart, or will passion draw them ever closer?
