Julian MacTavish's honor made him guard a friend's secret. But his lies to keep that vow make it difficult to prove his faithfulness as a husband. When a terrible inferno scars Patience's body and mind, she becomes a recluse. She hides not only from her friends in the Marlborough Set, but her husband as well, thus further widening the divide between them. But it's her lack of trust, not her disfigurement, which sends Julian home alone to the highlands of Scotland convinced he's lost her forever.
Forgiveness in the face of death comes easily to Patience MacTavish, but the thought of being a burden to her husband does not. When a twist of fate takes Julian's sight from him, Patience returns home hoping to make amends for not having faith in him. Pity is the last thing Julian wants from anyone, especially his wife, and it's his turn to question her sincerity. Now, Patience must convince her husband that she's come home to the highlands for no other reason than love, even if it means arranging her highlander's seduction.
