Yule brings them together, an accident rips them apart. Two spirits have other ideas. Claray Grant feels the loss of her beloved grandsire as Yule approaches. Past thirty and still unwed, she fears she will be alone for the rest of her life, but then a miracle happens. Thorn Taylor, the man she has loved for years, professes he feels the same way. Thorn has always wanted to marry Claray, but it took him years to find the courage to pursue her. Her adoptive sire, Connor Grant, is chieftain and a legendary warrior, and Thorn is naught but an orphan. But Yule is a time when the impossible is possible, and Connor gives him permission to pursue his daughter...which only makes it harder when everything falls apart. After Thorn plays a role in accidentally injuring Sela, Connor's wife and Claray's mother, he runs from the keep in shame, only to be captured by reivers. The happiness Claray and Thorn are so desperate for is about to be ripped from them, but two Grant spirits won't allow it. Alex and Maddie Grant have big Yule plans for their loved ones.
