Kate Campbell grips her sword as raiders attack her Highland home. She charges into battle, high-born status forgotten in the chaos of clashing steel. A deadly blade swings toward her until a mysterious warrior blocks the strike and pulls her onto his horse. Her rescuer reveals himself as Callum MacGregor, the man her Campbell clan calls The Devil. Their families have spilled each other's blood for generations, yet Kate feels drawn to his touch and the fire in his eyes. Callum has killed many Campbells but never saved one before this spirited woman who captivates him completely. He wants Kate beside him, even if he must hold her for ransom. Each moment together deepens their attraction, but loving her means betraying his kinsmen and his honor. Kate faces an impossible choice between clan loyalty and the enemy who saved her life.
