About this ebook

In this splendid New York Times bestseller, Julie Garwood brilliantly crafts the majestic story of a young Englishwoman determined to fight for her freedom...a woman whose life would be transformed by the rare, unexpected gift of love.

When Lady Johanna learned that she was a widow, she vowed she would never marry again. Only sixteen, already she possessed a strength of will that impressed all who looked past her golden-haired beauty. Yet when King John demanded that she remarry -- and selected a bridegroom for her -- it seemed she must acquiesce, until her beloved foster brother suggested she wed his friend, the handsome Scottish warrior Gabriel MacBain.

At first Johanna was shy, but as Gabriel tenderly revealed the splendid pleasures they would share, she came to suspect that she was falling in love with her gruff new husband. And it was soon apparent to the entire Highlands clan that their brusque, gallant laird had surrendered his heart completely. But now a desperate royal intrigue threatened to tear her from his side -- and to destroy the man whose love meant more to her than she had ever dreamed!

Ratings and reviews

I read this years ago and had forgotten how good it was...I loved it then and I loved It even more this time around..I'd give it 10 stars if I could.

This book was first read by me during a very bad and abusive marriage. It helped me to escape, if only in my mind, for just a little while, and gave me the courage and strength to leave my situation. I have so much gratitude for Ms. Garwood and her beautiful stories with strong females. I've read this book 40 or 50 times now. I wish I could give it more stars! !*♡*

This is the best of Julies books I was disappointed when she gave up historical romance for murder mystery. This is a pleasure to read with a hero and heroine that are easy to love. But its the shear story telling brilliance that makes her better than Lindsey or Deveraux.
