Description
Born into riches and groomed in English luxury, Margot Armstrong didn't belong in a Scottish chieftain's devil-may-care world. Three years ago she fled their marriage of convenience and hasn't looked backexcept to relive the moments spent in wild, rugged Arran McKenzie's passionate embrace. But as their respective countries' fragile unity threatens to unravel, Margot must return to her husband to uncover his role in the treachery before her family can be accused of it.
Red-haired, green-eyed Margot was Arran's beautiful bride. Her loss has haunted him, but her return threatens everything he has gained. As the Highland mists carry whispers of an English plot to seize McKenzie territory, he must outmaneuver her in games of espionage and seduction. But even as their secrets tangle together, there's nothing to prevent love from capturing them both and leading them straight into danger.

Featured Reviews
After having read a long streak of boring Historical Romance over the past few months, I'm happy to say this one was entertaining and fun. The characters felt authentic and situations not forced. Bravo Julia London!
A too young London bred bride. A hulking brute from the wilds of the Highlands. Not a match made in heaven but to ease the political tensions of the day. Margot accepts her fate as the bride of a man she doesn't know. It is her duty. The martial bed is more than she imagined but her husband's indifference sends her packing back to the lifestyle she was born to live. Arran doesn't need to marry for love or money but the tenuous peace between England & Scotland forces his hand to take an English bride only to lose her shortly after the wedding. With both sides doubtful of the fragile peace, spies are seen behind every rock. Margot is forced to return to her husband to determine if he is a spy. Arran is immediately suspicious of his bride's return. Could she be a spy? Can love blossom when treachery abounds? Another fantastic read from Julia London!
