He must take her to her destiny.
When a terrible illness hits her people and puts her older brother in bed, Sorcha Campbell is forced to become the lady of the Campbell clan. The lass is very responsible, and she is trying to control things, sometimes more than needed, but none of her efforts seem to be appreciated by the clan elders. Sorcha serves as a scapegoat in this tragedy, and to make things worse, her young sister gets terribly ill!
The only one who can help her is Malcolm, one of the best warriors of the clan who seems to be immune to the disease. The scary-looking Highlander will take the girl to a hidden healing place where she recovers, winning Sorcha’s trust. The lass is desperately trying to find a solution, even if everyone tells her that they are cursed and that only God can save them. And yet, Sorcha can not accept that their fate is entirely in the hands of God.
After a while, a woman shows up and explains to her that they are indeed cursed; Sorcha must rule the Dunscaith castle, the only place where a woman can rule, or she must find a husband to rule the Campbell castle. She has 17 days until the next full moon when she will not be able to lift the curse. The worst part? She must marry a man who is born “a King, a Warrior, and a Wolf Killer,” the lady says.
No man is born with all of those traits, so Sorcha thinks that she has no chance. However, Malcolm used to work for such a man; Laird Fraser has always been known as a fierce warrior, and he earned the nickname of “wolf-bane” when he slew a wolf as a young boy! His branch of nobility extends from the royal bloodline, so Sorcha and Malcolm will begin on a journey to find the man who they believe can save the clan.
On their journey, they will find that those they thought as friends might not mean well, and they will also find unexpected allies. As the two companions travel together, they will begin to develop feelings for each other, but they both know they could never be a couple. However, when they get into deadly danger, the least Malcolm feels he can do, is risk his life to save the lass, who is not only the lady of his clan but who has also captured his heart…
