He was a man who liked order and control. No Highland Hoyden was wrestling that from him!
Michael Deville prides himself on being ordered, controlled and the voice of reason amongst his fiery Deville brothers. Which is all true, until Freya MacDougall storms into his life and completely shakes his composure. Beautiful, infuriating, and reckless, Freya evokes emotions he’s never let himself feel before. She knows nothing of society or the correct way a lady should behave. In fact, she’s the exact opposite of everything he believed he wanted in a wife. She’s also up to something, and Michael is determined to find out what. But protecting her from the enemy lurking in the shadows while undertaking his duties to the King may be harder on his heart than he ever anticipated. She will yield to no man, especially not one of society’s most eligible bachelors. Freya has no wish to come to London for the season and have her great aunt, the Duchess of Yardly, turn her into a lady. It is a hopeless proposition, she knows, but she acquiesces to her parents’ demands when she knows her favourite Uncle Callum will be there. However, when she arrives and finds him missing, everything changes. She submits meekly to the endless fittings and tutors, and even the evenings spent in society, so she can continue to conduct her investigations as to where her Uncle has gone. Remarkably, she finds solace in her nightly sparring with the darkly handsome Michael Deville. He’s wicked, insolent, and intriguing. He also, annoyingly, keeps turning up where he is not wanted! When she realizes they are both fighting the same cause, Freya joins forces with Michael, but soon she is faced with a greater threat, the one to her heart. Freya and Michael battle to fight the danger that lurks in the shadows, but is it the battle they both fight to deny their love that will defeat them. |
