Book Description:
Wed ... or Dead by Nightfall

As heiress to the MacDougall Clan, Lara, Maid of Lorne knows that when she marries it will not be for love - but never dreams it will be used as punishment. When Robert the Bruce takes control of her castle home, Lara is forced to wed the Bruce's man - Sebastien of Cleish. Loyal to her clan, she vows that she will not surrender to this bold warrior.

But beneath his chain mail and armor lies the heart of a chivalrous, brave knight willing to entice, to woo, to make Lara his true wife - in every way. Could the man who stole her virtue, her home, her family give her a future in his arms?

From Booklist
It's either wed or dead, so Lara MacDougall, the Maid of Lorne, chooses marrying Sebastien of Cleish as the lesser of two evils. After routing Lara's father in battle, Sebastien had been given orders by Robert the Bruce to secure Dunstaffnage Castle, Lara's home. Using Lara's two younger siblings as hostages, Sebastien convinces Lara to throw open the gates. Once inside, he states his ultimatum: marry him or be dead by nightfall. Lara vows to do her best to become a thorn in the side of her new husband. At first, she refuses to be seduced by Sebastien's kind words and soft touches, but as she gets to know her enemy better, Lara finds it more and more difficult to betray the man with whom she is falling in love. With her usual superb sense of characterization and exceptional gift for creating sizzling sexual chemistry, Brisbin fashions a splendidly satisfying medieval historical that deftly explores the themes of trust and love.

This is a great, entertaining read. Not only was the action good (on AND off the bed), but the characters were strong and 3-dimensional (especially Sebastian). Terri Brisbin is a great writer!
