Ever since his betrothed, Evelinde, ran off with one of his trusted friends, Connor Buchanan, one of the most notorious lairds of Scotland, became a bitter man. He swore off women, vowing not to marry anyone until his death. That is until he laid eyes on Charlotte, an Englishwoman who has the face of an angel and the temper of the devil. Challenging him in ways other women never dare, Connor is intrigued and fascinated by this free-spirited woman.
Would he dare adore another woman as much as he adored Evelinde? Or would she prove to be just another woman who would swear to have him only to run off with another man?
