The pleasure of your company is requested at the wedding of Miss Eliza Cynster . . . but not until she's rescued from a daring abduction by the most unexpected of heroes!

Brazenly kidnapped from her sister Heather's engagement ball, Eliza Cynster is spirited north to Edinburgh. Desperate and determined to escape, she seizes upon the first possible champion who happens along-- gentleman scholar Jeremy Carling.

Villains and rescues are a far cry from Jeremy's expertise, yet he cannot abandon a damsel in distress. But danger lurks and hurdles abound in their race to escape the mysterious laird, until a final confrontation on a windswept cliff reveals what their future life could hold-- if both are bold enough to capture and own the unexpected love they now share.
