A pawn in her brother's scheme to become Laird and Chieftain of Clan Weir, Freyja is unfairly accused of a heinous crime, humiliated in front of her clan, and banished from her homeland. Hugh MacCormac knew escorting supply wagons in the Highlands at night easily put him and his men in danger. His concerns escalate when the trail leads him to a woman barely alive, buried in a shallow grave. Forced to decide between her life or risking the lives of his men, he leaves the poor lass to rest in peace.
Burdened by his hasty decision, Hugh returns hours later to give the lass a proper burial, only to find she is still alive. No good deeds have ever been left unpunished, and Hugh soon pays the price for his actions. Freyja awakens in an unfamiliar place engulfed in a sense of warmth and security, but that quickly vanishes when reality hits and she realizes she's lying in the arms of a naked man. Unable to trust anyone places Freyja in danger.
Will her fight for justice be contested or supported by those she once considered family and friends?
