Powerful men of wild, proud spirit, only the rarest and most splendid brides will do for the Highland Rogues Despite the prophecy governing the choice of a perfect Fraser mate, headstrong Isobel will be nobody's bride! Not even Gilmour of the MacGowans -- the insistent suitor whom every maid in the Highlands wants and whose attentions she has already spurned -- despite the rogue's winning charm and uncommon good looks. For Isobel's clan is in gravest danger, and there's no place in her life for wedding vows, passion...and the desires of a traitorous heart. He will wed Isobel Fraser -- though Gilmour is admittedly shocked to find her working as a cook in an out-of-the-way inn, flaunting her considerable charms for strangers! To the devil with her reluctance -- and with the secrets that have suddenly placed both of them in dire peril. For Gilmour knows where the enchanting lady truly belongs -- by his side at a wedding altar draped in MacGowan plaid...in the marriage bed that follows!
