about the book
Torn from his mother’s arms after a deadly fire and spirited away to Scotland, Liam’s past refuses to remain buried. On his twenty-fifth birthday, he learns he is the rightful Duke of Ravenwood. His ancestral English estate is now ruled by the usurper who murdered his family in the fire and stole his inheritance.
The knight’s plan to reclaim Ravenwood and exact revenge hinges on secrecy—but a chance meeting with a courageous, kindhearted lass threatens to unravel everything. Ella would risk anything to protect a ragged band of orphaned children, and when her violet-eyed beauty draws the villain’s lecherous attention, Liam is forced to choose. Will he risk discovery and death to save the woman who has captured his heart? Or will saving Ella require him to surrender his thirst for vengeance and embrace God’s higher calling?

excerpt
“Our God, in whom we trust: Strengthen us not to regard overmuch who is for us or who is against us. . .” As she prayed, Ella furtively sought a path of escape. There was none.
“…but to see to it that we be with You in everything we do. Amen.” Ella’s breaths slowed. A mysterious calm enveloped her in a comforting embrace. She allowed Drake to haul her to her feet, faced her nemesis, and lifted her chin. Glaring into Drake’s eyes, she leaned forward. “You deserved it.”
Drake roared, formed a fist, and drew back his beefy arm.
Ella closed her eyes and prayed the first blow would knock her unconscious.
A manly grunt followed a loud thump, but Ella remained upright. The catcalls ceased. She opened one eyelid and gasped at the unexpected sight.
A stranger had blocked Drake’s punch and encompassed the sergeant’s fist with his gigantic fingers. The man towered over Drake, and his mass outmatched Ella’s tormentor. His blond hair grazed the bottom edge of the low-hanging Mace & Hammer Tavern sign, and his dominance made the air hard to breathe.
“Ye’ll not strike a woman in my presence.” Although the outsider spoke at normal volume, no one missed his threat.
The cold fear that squeezed Ella’s heart eased somewhat. She tried to sidle away, but the men wouldn’t part. Battle would soon commence, and nothing frail would remain undamaged, certainly not a slip of a woman.
