Deception and family honor are at stake – so is her heart.
Wesley Reynolds will do anything to avenge his family’s banishment
from Dundhragon Castle even throw in with the notorious pirate, MacAlpin. His
plan, ruin Lord Ewan’s trading network. He has a more devious plan for his
father’s ‘best friend,’ the man who abandoned them at the eleventh hour. He’ll
ruin the man’s most precious jewel, his daughter Darla. Wesley’s so close to
ruining the trade network and succeeding he can almost taste it, but revenge is
not nearly as sweet as Darla’s kisses.
Darla Maxwell, beloved by her parents has no prospects of marriage.
Her father and Lord Ewan search to find her the right husband. Darla’s special
gifts are frightening to many. She has visions that often come true. The murky
image of a man haunts her, she’s sure it’s Lord Ewan’s soon-to-be son-in-law,
but the vision morphs when she meets Wesley. The meaning couldn’t be any
clearer to her, her destiny lies with Wesley.
When
revelations surface indicating Wesley has been deceived and his revenge
misplaced. Will he find the truth of what really happened to his family in time
to stop the pirates? Will Darla ever forgive him? Will he ever forgive himself?
“Ruth A. Casie’s vivid descriptions place you right in the
story. It is a wonderful read I highly recommend.” ~ Deb

The wind roared
down the deck, sprays of water erupted from the prow as the ship bounced and
rolled in the sea. Nothing hindered the man’s grip. Finally, she raised her
head, but the shroud of fog blanketing the ship made it difficult to see.
Darla strained and
made out dark wet hair plastered to his face. The ship shifted beneath her
feet. Unsteady, he held her close, she clung to him. She didn’t have to see
clearly to know who held her.
