But her Banshee scream doesn't kill him, and the more she tries, the harder it becomes to resist the wicked temptation he poses. He's cursed for the crimes of another... None of the many sins staining Laird Rory MacKay's soul warrant the wailing Banshee in his bedroom.

To a Banshee, revenge is a dish best served screaming... Kylah MacKay was brutalized and burned alive, but denied her vengeance by a cruel twist of fate.

Daroch McLeod is a ruthless and brilliant Druid driven by a single purpose: Retribution. Abused and tormented, he's promised not to stop until he's retaliated against his immortal captors. And he's never been closer to his goal. Daroch refuses to let the beautiful, inquisitive Banshee, who haunts his every step, uncover his deadly secrets. Can two souls searching for vengeance find redemption instead? Join the MacKay Banshees as they each find a love that will be worth defying the forces of evil and risking their souls to save our world.
