Book FIVE - Yield to the Knight
Methinks the lady has secrets…
Actually, Guillaume Challon knows Rowanne MacShane is keeping dark secrets, ones that threaten to overshadow their growing love. He came to Scotland with his brother, Julian, upon the command of Edward Plantagenet, ordered to take and hold the valley of Glen Shane. His brother rewarded him with the small holding of Glennashane―and the hand of Lady Rowanne for his bride. The rumors that speak the lady may have played a hand in the death of her first husband cause him little pause―used to battles and winning, why should his upcoming marriage be any different? He wants the lady in his bed and will not stop at any cost to attain the prize of her heart. She wants him, he sees it in her eyes, yet in the same breath she continually pushes him away.
Shortly after their marriage, he is summoned to Edward’s side to fight the Scots at the Battle of Sterling. Upon his return to Glennashane, he finds his Scottish bride has locked and barred his fortress against him. He must lay siege to his castle and his lady’s heart. But, unless he unlocks the secrets she hides dearly their very lives are at peril.

Affectionately known as ‘Dare’ ― Darian Challon is a man with a lot of things to prove in this world. All his life he’s carried the stigma of being the bastard son of Michael Challon, the one son born of a common serving girl. For his whole life he stood in the shadow of his powerful half-brother, Julian, earl to several earldoms and once the champion of Edward Plantagenet. While he loves his brother and never was jealous of position in this world, Darian needs to be his own man, to find that sense of self-worth lacking in his life. His chance finally comes when Julian sends him to take the holding belonging to Lady Catrin Benntyne. His time has finally come, and only one thing is standing in his way―a fiery redhead with amber eyes.
Lady Catrin Benntyne is less than pleased with the coming of this English warrior. She has no choice but to turn over command of her fortress to his keeping, but she vows he will never have her. Betrothed at birth to a man she had soon hoped to marry, she is devastated to learn he died in the battle at Sterling. Not even given a chance to grieve, she is forced to accept Darian Challon as her lord, but will never accept Julian Challon’s order that they marry.
Against the war torn landscape of Scotland, they must fight a battle of their own. Only Darian is a man who will dare anything to win what he wants.
