"Amid the Jacobite uprising of 1715, an English heiress flees to the Scottish lowlands to stay with allies of her powerful family. But while castle walls may protect her from the enemy outside, a maelstrom of intrigue, shifting allegiances, and temptations of the heart lie within"-- 1715. Lady Blythe Hedley's father is declared an enemy of the British crown because of his Jacobite sympathies, forcing her to flee her home in northern England. In the tower of Wedderburn Castle in Scotland, she awaits to hear who will ultimately be crowned king. Everard Hume lost father, Lord Wedderburn, shortly before Lady Hedley arrived. He has his own problems: a volatile brother with dangerous political leanings, an estate to manage, and a very young brother in need of comfort and direction. Neither wants the distraction offered by the other-- and both have learned that those who pretend friendship may be enemies. - adapted from back cover
