And what better way to mark the beginning of a new era than by wedding the Graham family's most precious lady? Peace always comes at a price, and seducing a beautiful woman seems a small one to pay.Incensed by her brother's scheme to marry her off to a Scottish barbarian, Caroline Graham is shocked to find her betrothed so pleasing to the eye. Nevertheless, she enters into the arrangement with a determinedly icy heart and a vow to resist her husband's every touch. But when she suspects she's merely a pawn in her brother's ultimate plan to destroy his ancient enemy for good—and to find and claim the storied magical stone as his own—Caroline is torn. Robert's bravery, loyalty, and charm have begun to melt her resistance. Is it possible that her sworn enemy is really the love of her life?
