Love of King or Love of the best woman he’s ever met? Either way he will betray someone he loves.King Edward of England believes Simon is a traitor and gives him one last chance to prove his loyalty. Take hostage one of the MacKai Jewels until the powerful Scots Baron MacKai bends to Edward’s will. Following Edward’s orders will destroy any chance he has to court the woman he’s coming to love. 

The MacKai clan has earned the hatred of England’s King Edward.

Neilina MacKai was just beginning to like English knight Simon Du Grace. Then he had to go and propose marriage. Tempting as the handsome knight is, marriage would be out of the question were he not proposing to protect her family from the wrath of the English King. Refusing condemns her clan. Acceptance condemns her love. How can she refuse?

Can Neilina and Simon find a way to love despite the political maneuvering designed to separate them forever?
