Let the chase begin! Fleeing to an abbey isn’t really Seonaid Dunbar’s first choice. She’d been trained alongside her brother as a Scottish warrior at her father’s knee. But running was preferable to wedding Blake Sherwell, a man the English court calls “the Angel.” Seonaid knows there are no English angels, only English devils—and more than one way to elude a devilish suitor, even if King Henry himself has ordered her to marry him. Blake believed the next countess of Sherwell would be sitting at home—embroidering perhaps—as she eagerly awaited his arrival. Instead, she is hiding behind the walls of a new stronghold and readying her defenses. To win this battle of wills, Blake will need every weapon at his disposal: swords, sleeping drafts, claymores, sweet words, and passionate kisses.
