Two clans on the brink of war. A king hell-bent on keeping the peace. Let the forced marriages begin. Catlin MacRob is used to being called headstrong. In fact, she’s earned the title. So when news arrives that she will be forced to wed Laird Broden Shaw in one month’s time if their clans’ feud is not laid to rest, she knows what she must do: single-handedly solve the mystery of her missing clanswoman, which has pushed both clans to the verge of war. Easy enough. But when Broden comes upon her snooping on his lands, his steely blue stare sends her wits scattering, and his nearness throws her best-laid plans into disarray. Can she uncover the truth before she loses her heart to the enemy? It is madness for Broden to work with Catlin to diffuse their clans’ hostility. Yet he finds himself beguiled by the wee hellion’s blade-sharp mind and stubborn determination to get to the bottom of the feud. But as they investigate her missing clanswoman further, Broden stumbles upon a dangerous secret that could unravel their efforts at peace. As Laird, it is his duty to protect his clan above all else, yet his heart threatens to betray him. With time running out, can they stop an all-out war before it’s too late? The Shaws and MacRobs trilogy follows three couples as they find unexpected love in the midst of an ongoing clan conflict. While each couple gets an HEA at the end of their story, the mystery behind the feud carries across all three books. For the best experience, reading the series in order is strongly recommended.

The feud started with them, and one way or another, they will end it. Two people are missing, and the feud between the Shaws and MacRobs is burning hotter than ever because of it. Twelve years ago, Rhona Shaw was forced to marry the devil Duncan MacAdder instead of Royce MacRob, and hatred erupted between the Shaw and MacRob clans. Now Rhona is free, and she knows only she and Royce can end the feud—by getting married. Their previous passion flares when they meet again, but old anger is hard to dispel. Royce has spent the last twelve years simultaneously trying to convince himself he hates Rhona for marrying another and refusing to consider any other woman as his wife. And her proposal sends him reeling. But he knows she’s right—only they can convince King Alexander that their clans have made peace and he should stop his interference. But villainy from a surprising source, a devastating revelation, and long-nurtured resentments threaten the happiness they’ve waited for so long.
