A Survivor Tryana de Gray has been keeping her family’s secrets for as long as she can remember. Having barely escaped a forced marriage to a fanatical baron, she won’t be in control of her own future until she can sever ties with her controlling father. In the meanwhile, she intends to learn to defend herself like the bold Scottish women who helped her escape and then put those skills to use when she faces the secrets of her family’s past. A Protector Cadyn MacAdam has trained as a warrior his entire life but never have his skills been tested as in the service of Tryana de Gray. Having sworn to keep the lass safe, to protect her from those who have pursued her from England to Scotland, Cadyn knows that to keep her safe is to keep her close. But his family, most especially his grandfather Logan Ramsay, is bent on interfering, putting them both in danger. As secrets and lies unfurl before them and danger circles from all sides, will the tension around them push Cadyn and Tryana together or pull them apart?
