"On her father's deathbed beautiful, titian haired Flanna MacGowan is named as the unlikely laird of Clan MacGowan. Desperate to protect her people against the fierce Forbes warriors and desperate to avenge past grievances, Flanna engages in trickery and ends up holding one of the Forbes' warriors as her captive. Unbeknownst to Flanna, the handsome blue eye captive is in actuality Roderic Forbes, otherwise known as Roderic the Rogue. Although Flanna is Roderic's sworn enemy, Roderic is immediately swept under her fiery spell. There is something special about Flanna, Roderic realizes, something that makes him want to protect the lass. Although Flanna accuses the Forbes of attacking the MacGowans, Roderic swears his innocence and joins forces with Flanna to find the real culprits.
As Flanna and Roderic work together to unmask the attacker(s) they find themselves swept into a tidal wave of desire. Can two sworn enemies put aside their differences long enough to fall in love? "
