When a fierce Scottish ranger defies orders to rescue Annie from certain death in the wilderness, he's unprepared for the intensity of what follows—or the secrets she's guarding so carefully. As danger closes in from all sides and their connection deepens, Iain must grapple with a heart-wrenching choice between duty and love. In a world of brutal frontier warfare and survival, sometimes the bravest thing a warrior can do is surrender to the one person who makes him question everything. This is a sweeping historical romance that beautifully captures the passion and peril of the colonial frontier.

Brooding folk-rock and sultry indie vibes meet frontier intensity. Think smoldering harmonies, raw acoustic guitar, and sensual alt-rock—artists like Hozier, The Lumineers, and Cigarettes After Sex. Passionate, dangerous, impossible to resist.
