Mairi devises a plan to bring peace between her clan and the MacLeans. Before she can attempt it, she suffers a devastating shipwreck on a deserted island, which nearly claims her life. Lying there, half-dead, she’s discovered by the ousted leader of Clan MacLean. He hides his identity and nurses her back to health.
Things heat up, and they fall in love. When Mairi’s brother comes searching for her, he discovers her in the hands of his sworn enemy. Donald MacLean barely escapes with his life.
Mairi is forced from Donald and the island, but when she discovers her brother’s secret treacherous acts, she steals a boat and tries to make it back to Donald. But what are the chances she will ever find the island or Donald again? And even if she does, won’t her brother just come back to reclaim her?
