He lives for solitude. She was promised to another. But on a rugged Highland path, their hearts lose their way.

Rory Hart prefers cliffs to castles, silence to conversation, and freedom to duty. So when his father commands him to escort an abandoned woman through the Highlands, he’s prepared for a miserable journey. But Alana Duran is not what he expects. She’s sharp-tongued, stubborn, and utterly unprepared for the wild—and yet, her spirit sparks something both fierce and tender within him.

Alana has no choice. Her father’s arranged a marriage to secure her family’s future, and she’s determined to obey—even if it means trekking through unfamiliar terrain with the brooding Highlander who wants nothing to do with her. Rory’s rough, unkempt, and infuriating—and yet her heart begins to betray her.

Their journey is one of barbed banter, stolen glances, and growing desire. The Highlands begin to feel less like a prison and more like a promise. As trust turns to attraction and attraction kindles something deeper, one truth becomes impossible to deny—some paths are meant to be walked together.

But Alana is still promised to another. Rory is still bound by duty to his clan. And love, no matter how wild or fierce, may not be enough to rewrite their fate. In a land where alliances are forged by marriage and loyalty can cost them everything, can two hearts choose love over obligation?
