Yvette Stapleton, an heiress determined to defy societal expectations, sees marriage as a prison from which she has no desire to escape-until Ewan, Viscount Sethwick, disrupts her carefully guarded world. Unlike the men who covet her fortune, Ewan sees the woman beneath the wealth, challenging Yvette's resolve and awakening a desire she cannot control.
Ewan, also known as Laird McTavish, carries the burden of a secret life as a covert operative, with one final mission hanging over his head: the exposure of a traitor. Yvette was never part of his calculated plans, yet he finds himself inexorably drawn to her, even as he vows to keep her safe from the dangers that shadow his every step. Their flight to Scotland, a desperate bid for safety, results in an unintended yet binding marriage that Yvette insists must be annulled.
As they journey through the untamed Highlands, Ewan and Yvette are forced to confront their deepest fears and desires. What began as a convenient facade evolves into a deep, soul-searing connection that defies explanation. Faced with the choice of annulment or acceptance, will they cling to their individual pasts, or will they forge a new future together? Amidst the tumult of their adventure, it becomes clear that love, once kindled, is impossible to extinguish.
