Her blade cut him. Her charm might finish the job.
Pippia Mctavie’s mother died in childbirth, and while her father, Laird McTavie, isn’t cruel, he doesn’t dote on her because she reminds him of his lost love. As a result, Pippia was raised by her nanny and her father’s warriors and has spent more time knife-throwing blindfolded than gossiping or dancing like other lasses.
Her uncommon behavior is causing her and her father to grow further apart, but the Laird has a task in mind for his daughter. The Mctavies have been in a brutal war for years, and since he has no son to help him win the fight, the Laird will use his daughter to create an alliance!
Pippia is not very happy with her father’s idea, but she knew this moment would come someday and only wishes that her future husband will love her. Unfortunately, she will never meet him as an assassin has been watching her every move while hiding in the shadows… Arran Stewart works alone and in the dark and has never failed in a mission.
His latest one is the kidnapping of a young lass, and after all the terrible things he has done, this task sounds trivial. What he did not expect however was a knife thrown in his direction as soon as he approached Pippia. Despite the fight she puts up, the lass is trapped, and she must choose between using brute force to escape or using her charm to negotiate with the fearsome Highlander.
