Shaw Gordon has been written off as a rogue by his entire clan. Shaw's new wife Margot and her father have frittered away most of the estate Shaw is heir to. Except that his cousin Drew is still very much alive. He returns from Waterloo and disowns him.

Shaw is now the black sheep of the family, forced to live by his wits ever more desperately in order to keep food on the table and a roof over his wife's head.

One fateful night in January 1818, Shaw's actions help lead to the most deadly consequences. In the midst of the chaos, he rescues Catriona, who's fled an arranged marriage in the Highlands, but is struggling to make her way in southern Scotland as a lovely young woman on her own.

Shaw tries to atone for what he's done by offering her a job, but their attraction grows. But each are hiding secrets that threaten to destroy any chance of their having a future together. Does Shaw dare admit his growing feelings for Cat? Or tell the truth about what he is, and what he's done?
