A lass who cannot speak. A warrior who cannot fight. Can they restore peace to each other?
Rose MacDole cannot speak, and her mother ensures the world sees her as a deaf, daft girl incapable of communication. Completely under the cruel woman’s control, her only escape is to roam the cliffs outside of her castle, looking down at the turbulent, seething water and dreaming of a different life. But when a handsome Highlander visits their castle, he sets off a series of events that will free Rose from her mother’s cage—and propel her into a different sort of danger.
Roddy Grant has a secret. A warrior in a clan renowned for its prowess on the battlefield, he struggles with a profound fear of death. Grappling with this fear that threatens to unman him, Roddy nonetheless continues to work with the Band of Cousins, trying to eliminate an evil network that trades in human lives. On a scouting mission for the group, he finds himself at a secluded castle on the coast, where he meets a bonny lass who cannot speak.
Rose steals a piece of Roddy’s soul, and when he discovers she may be entangled with the very network he and his cousins seek to destroy, he will do anything to save her—even face his worst fear.
