Tamed by a Laird

Beautiful young Baroness Jenny Easdale, not quite of-age when her widowed father died, has become the ward of Lady Phaeline, a kinswoman. Phaeline's husband Lord Dunwythie, duty-bound to settle Jenny and her inherited estates into a marriage, accepts Phaeline's younger brother Reid as Jenny's betrothed. At her own betrothal feast, Jenny impulsively slips away with the hired minstrel troupe - her hope being to enjoy one last adventure before submitting to an odious marriage. Realizing Jenny is missing, Phaeline's older brother Sir Hugh Douglas agrees to search for her. A knight and baron who won his spurs heroically in battle, but lost his beloved wife in childbed, Hugh catches up with Jenny and the troupe, to find that she has just learned of a secret plot to attack the most powerful lord in Scotland - Archibald Douglas. Desperate to prevent this attack, Jenny asks Hugh to help her warn Archibald. Thus allied, the duo discover a mutual attraction too powerful to ignore. If only they could prove Reid an unfit husband... But first, these two lovers must warn Archibald and help prevent the planned attack that ultimately threatens all of Scotland.
