HIGHEST RANKING #6 in HISTORICAL FICTION --- Amhuinn Kincaid, exiled from the Kincaid Clan, has spent the last three years as an outcast among the Highlands. She lived alone with her brother Tamhas, and the two siblings rely on each other. However, when her brother ended up in trouble and captured by their former clan, Amhuinn had no other choice but to turn to the clan closest to where she and Tamhas had made their home - no other than Hammond MacKenzie, the unsmiling Laird of the MacKenzie Clan. Hammond remembered meeting the blonde with a limp, just a year ago when he was on his way back from England. He had extended a helping hand back then, offering assistance should they ever need it. He hadn't given it much thought then, but he never expected her to turn up on his doorstep one fateful evening, firmly asking for his assistance and refusing to leave until he agreed to do so. Complying with her requests would mean putting his clan in danger... but it appears that the MacKenzie had found one minx, he would do anything for.
