Writer Grace Campbell and her sister, Faith, had a troubled start in life. They were the only family each other had. When Faith gets the opportunity of a lifetime to move to Scotland and help a Scottish Clan solve a family mystery, Grace tags along as an opportunity for some deserved holidays. Grace didn't, however, plan to meet James MacInnes - the eldest son of the Clan and the heir. He is everything she knows to avoid, everything that would break her heart. As their attraction grows, Grace is more and more convinced that stern and polite James is his family's future and their legacy, and Grace just isn't the right woman for him.
