13 years after he was kidnapped and sold into slavery, Aidan MacAlpin returns to Scotland to find the home he knew long gone. His mother, a proper education, a chance at love - all gone. All he has now are dreams of vengeance. Elspeth Farquharson has already resigned herself to the life of a spinster when she's hired to tutor dark, brooding Aidan - a real-life hero more enticing than any from her adventure books. If only she could convince this tragic rogue that she's not the nervous, stuttering bookworm she appears to be...
