Book Description:
In the harsh Scottish highlands of 1565, superstition and treachery threaten a truce between rival clans. It's a weak truce at first, bound only by an arranged engagement between Anne MacGregor and Niall Campbell-the heirs of the feuding families.
While Niall wrestles with his suspicions about a traitor in his clan, Anne's actions do not go unnoticed. And as accusations of witchcraft abound, the strong and sometimes callous Campbell heir must fight for Anne's safety among disconcerted clan members. Meanwhile his own safety in threatened with the ever-present threat of someone who wants him dead.
Will Niall discover the traitor's identity in time? Can Anne find a way to fit into her new surroundings? Will the two learn to love each other despite the conflict? With a perfect mix of a burgeoning romance and thrilling suspense, this book is historical fiction at its best.

This is not the Christian book of her series. This book was written before she started writing Christian literature. So bear in mind that the sex scenes are described.

Excellent, excellent book! I really loved this story. Right from the beginning, almost the very first page the story grips your heart. I just finished it and already i want to read it again. The only thing that i didn't really like was that there wasn't much mention of God, but don't let that discourage you from reading it, make your own opinion first because its definitely worth reading!
The story is about a woman named Anne who uses her skills to heal people. People have superstitions about her a call her a witch which causes obvious trouble right away when she uses her own breath to bring a baby back to life. A man from an enemy clan sees her and accuses her of being a witch, but before she can be burnt at the stake a man comes forward and saves her life.
Because of this she later saves his life and is forced to marry him to stop a feud between their opposing clans. Will love find them before a traitor in the clan kills them both?
