Lachlann flees to Scotland to escape witch hunters, only to have one target him.
Lachlann has made a good life for himself in Scotland, learning to fight with a sword to back up and better hide his magical powers. But when a witch hunter shows up bent on his town's destruction, he may have to flee to save them. but the hunter's daughter, Isla, has claimed his heart despite him warding off love. Why his magic fails him now, he couldn't begin to explain. Can he risk death at the hands of her father just for a chance at her love?
Isla has spent years with her father tracking down dark witches...and not so dark witches...and rumors thereof. She has also spent those years trying to protect them from people like her father. She has a dark secret which could get her killed, one she wants to entrust to Lachlann, despite everything.
Love strikes her the first time they touched, and now, she is stuck between her father and the man who stole her heart. How can she choose between safety and her heart's desire? More, could she trust Lachlann with her secret? Because, if she trusted wrong, the penalty was death at her own father's hands.
