Marin’s Promise (Borderland Ladies Book 1)

Description

Lady Marin Barrington is not only the sole caregiving to her sisters after their mother’s death, she also acts in her father’s stead while he is abroad. When a reiver forces his way into the castle, Marin swears she will see him dead. However, matters get complicated when plans go awry and passions burn bright.

Bran Davidson’s sister is going to be hanged, unless he agrees to take Werrick Castle. Ever a pawn in a rich man’s game, Bran has no choice but to force his way into Werrick. He quickly discovers getting into the castle is the easy part. Dealing with its mistress, however, will take every ounce of cunning and determination he can muster, especially when she turns his blood to fire.

In a world where desperation and love dictate the lives of many, a simple promise can change the tide of favor and open the door to pleasure and danger alike.
