PROUD AND KIND, HE LOVES HER BEYOND ALL REASON.His first vision of her luminous red-gold hair and flashing gray eyes ignites a spark of desire in warrior Angus McMahon that will never die. Her name is Claudia Cherveny. Following a bloody war for supremacy, Angus is awarded her family's fiefdom and her hand as his bride. But the memory of her family's destruction haunts Claudia day and night, building around her heart a wall of hatred that she vows Angus will never penetrate. Soon, though, his gentle hand and searing emerald eyes breach the wall with wave upon wave of surprising passion. Their love, born of such deep emotions, runs deeper than the heart-it floods their very souls.
