Despite her early years in poverty, she discovers a happy life with a loving adoptive family, friends, and her painting.

After Eileen helps save Drake’s young cousins from a Jacobite rebellion, he expresses his gratitude by searching for her family. But he uncovers a deadly web of deceit, a nightmare that endangers Eileen, their families, and Drake’s carefully planned future. Together, they must risk honor, name, and life itself to face the past that haunts her and jeopardizes any chance at love. . .
