In 1330 Scotland, two warring clans - the MacInnes and the MacLeans - are enjoying an uneasy truce. The truce is shattered when a MacInnes bride who was promised to a MacLean is found murdered. With ancient enmity flaring anew, the bride's clan wants blood - and vows to seek revenge against the MacLeans. But Lady Isolde, the chieftain of the MacInnes clan, wants no more bloodshed. Secretly, she devises a plan to seduce the MacLean laird Donall and bend him to her will. But everything is turned upside down when Donall decides to have Isolde on his terms - and Lady Isolde finds herself succumbing to his devilish charms!

This book tells the story of the Clan MacInnes and the Clan MacLeans. Bad blood runs between them due to an ancient tale of a MacLean leaving his MacInnes wife to drown on a rock off the isle of Doon.
It appears as if history has repeated it's self when Lileas, sister of Isolde MacInnes laird of that Clan,is found drowned on the Lady rock, her husband brother to the Laird of the Macleans is overcome with grief but the MacInnes believe that he is responsible for Lileas's death.
When Donall, Laird MacLean brings his sister-in -laws body back to her Clan he is held prisoner.
The MacInnes want to torture him and hang him for his Clan's crime but Isolde MacInnes, the Laird wants to use him to help keep the peace between the two clans and also save her from a marriage to a violent man from another Clan. Her plan is to bed the MacLean Laird and get with child so that they can all live in peace.
When Donall becomes aware of her scheme he vows to make her want him for himself not just to get with child, he wants marriage.
I enjoyed this book but felt that it took too long before they finally got together. I have read 'Devil in a kilt' which i really loved but feel that this book does not quite make five stars. However i shall continue to read Ms Welfonder's books as they become available for she is a good story teller and worth keeping on the book shelf.

This book took too long to get to the point, more than half way through before they even got together. I was really looking forward to reading some of this authours work after reading the online reviews, now I would think twice before buying anymore of her books.
