His wife across the sea will make her life a living hell.



Mitchell Beattie has been in his family's estate for a few days, enjoying peace after years of war. He has fought the English countless times, developing a deep hatred for them. However, his father, Laird Beattie, announces to him that he must make one more sacrifice for his family and his people; Mitchell's clan owes a massive debt to the powerful English Lord Abbott, and the only way to repay it is... with a marriage.

Abbott wants to marry his daughter, Thea, to Mitchell, to secure a long-lasting peace between them that will benefit Abbott greatly. Mitchell is furious and refuses even to consider marrying the girl! Everyone thinks that this is because of Mitchell's hatred alone, but the Highland warrior hides a terrible secret. He has already married a lady who lives in a foreign land where he spilled English blood. The land of France.

Unfortunately, the betrothal is a matter of life and death, so the Beatties accept the offer, and Thea begins her journey towards the cold and windy Highlands. Thea had always expected to marry a noble English man, and the prospect of marrying a battle-hardened Scottish Laird is far from ideal. However, she could never imagine that the man already has a wife! Even if that marriage took place under questionable circumstances, its revelation would turn her life into a living nightmare.

Thea has to tame Mitchell and ease his hatred, proving to him that she is not the enemy. To everyone's surprise, the angry Highlander shows signs of affection towards the English girl, but the longer his sin remains a secret, the worse the consequences will be.

To help her father and save her new clan from destruction, Thea must somehow solve this riddle. The only thing she is certain about is that she can not do this without Mitchell's help, so the first step is conquering his heart and mind entirely. Then her best course of action, she figures, is the most dangerous one; deal with the thorn in her flesh directly and find out all she can about the secret wife.
