Read an Excerpt


Three Scottish brothers, cursed to walk with death, become what they were fated to be: dark warriors—a spy, a mercenary, and an assassin—without homes, families, or futures. Inhabiting a shadow realm on the periphery of society, these men are damned by their fates, their actions and, in some cases, by the very people they protect. They are fiercely possessive and will do whatever it takes to defend what's theirs. If crossed, their wrath is brutal.

But the consuming desires each man has for his lady—and his fear of hurting her when he acts on them—are tormenting. Luckily, the brothers choose their heroines wisely, because it takes a very special woman to tame a dark heart.


Summary

I don't know what effect these men will have upon the enemy, but, by God, they terrify me.
— Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington

Can a Highlander steal his enemy's bride and make her love him?

High in the Pyrenees, a band of mercenaries led by Courtland MacCarrick wages war for brutal General Reynaldo Pascal. When Court turns on the general, Pascal orders him killed. Court narrowly escapes and exacts revenge by kidnapping Pascal's exquisite Castilian fiancée.

Noble heiress Annalía Tristán Llorente despises her towering, barbaric captor almost as much as she does Pascal. Her inexplicable attraction to the Highlander only fuels her fury. Yet nothing will stop her from returning to Pascal—for if she doesn't wed him, she signs her brother's death warrant, as well as her own.

From the moment Court discovers that Anna's prim façade masks a fiery, brave lass, his heart's ensnared and he dares to defy the curse that has shadowed his life—to walk with death or walk alone. But Pascal vows that he'll hunt the two, never stopping until he's destroyed them both. If they survive, can there be love between a defiant beauty and a ruthless Highland mercenary?
