Gray Pendray is the hero of this story. Who is now a spy in Edinburgh for the Scottish Privy Council. Gray has a homecoming after several years to gain access and organize the rebel Jacobite army.

The heroine of this story is Faith Cameron. She has been fostered by the Pendray family since her father was an executed traitor and her mentally unstable mother committed suicide. She has been infatuated with Gray Pendray since she was a young girl and has missed him terribly. She knows nothing will have happen as he sees her as a young silly girl and he’s is from a high born family. Plus her family has a horrible stain forever, with execution and suicide in her parents background. Gray is just too good for the likes of her but she can’t seem to resist her feelings for him.

Yet as soon as Gray sees that Faith has turned into a beautiful young woman while he has been away. He is instant attracted to Faith and does not seem to mind that she finds him attractive. Yet it is during difficult times the major problem is he has already made an obligation to the daughter of his advisor counselor in Edinburgh. Is it too late before their love can even begin? Or is true love the answer during difficult times during treachery and espionage during the risks jeopardy and deception on the uprising.

Anna Markland continues her wonderful series with her fourth book of the House of Pendray series. This story has all the elements historical romance readers love. The setting in breathtaking, the characters are absolutely delightful, the dialogue is exhilarating and and plotting is brilliant. It is a quick paced, page turning, romantic adventure that includes suspense, mystery, treachery, deception, betrayal, espionage, spying, hatred of heartwarming, passion and love.

A definite readers will love. I highly recommend!
