To secure her inheritance and escape a scandal not of her making, wealthy socialite Cairstie Henderson relocates to a small town in the Scottish Isles, far from the city lights and runways she once frequented. There, she encounters the Irish spy responsible for the public breakup that made her the laughingstock of the Scottish Borders.
Sheridan, a hardened MI6 agent, is on an undercover assignment to locate missing operatives and the mysterious traitor leaking top-secret information to the Chinese. Unfortunately, there’s one hitch: Cairstie Henderson knows his true identity—and she detests him.
When Cairstie surprises an intruder, she seeks out Sheridan, the one man who can protect her. Over time, these opposites give way to an attraction that eventually blossoms into love. But with a dangerous criminal stalking their steps and intrigue around every corner, will Cairstie and Sheridan obtain their happily ever after, or will they end up dead?
