As McLeod clan leader, Graham has always placed duty to his heritage and people before everything else. Even when it means honouring a ridiculously outdated pact to become betrothed to a McAuley descendant. His business arrangement with American Katie McAuley suits them both - she spends a month at his Scottish castle, where she can take refuge from her overbearing family and figure out her future - if he could just keep Katie's courage and honesty at arm's length, not to mention their all-too-sizzling attraction.

And even if the sizzling attraction between them is changing everything this roguish playboy thinks he knows about lust. . .and love. Praise for Donna Kauffman and Her Novels "Give me more." —Linda Howard on "The Charm Stone" "Whimsical and sexy." —Jennifer Crusie on "Your Wish Is My Command" "Donna Kauffman writes smart and sexy, with sizzle to spare " —Janet Evanovich
