Wicked intrigue unfolds as an unlikely marriage leads to a path of risky desire in the lush, green Scottish Highlands Born into riches and groomed in English luxury, Margot Armstrong didn't belong in a Scottish chieftain's devil-may-care world. Three years ago she fled their marriage of convenience and hasn't looked back–except to relive the moments spent in wild, rugged Arran McKenzie's passionate embrace. But as their respective countries' fragile unity threatens to unravel, Margot must return to her husband to uncover his role in the treachery before her family can be accused of it. Red-haired, green-eyed Margot was Arran's beautiful bride. Her loss has haunted him, but her return threatens everything he has gained. As the Highland mists carry whispers of an English plot to seize McKenzie territory, he must outmaneuver her in games of espionage…and seduction. But even as their secrets tangle together, there's nothing to prevent love from capturing them both and leading them straight into danger.

Another second chance romance! I would have given this a higher rating, but it reminded a lot of Diana Gabaldon's [book:Outlander 10964]. The story was centered around Margot and Arron, their arranged marriage, and then their reconciliation. The parts that reminded me of Outlander were really centered around the Jacobites, mosty the surroundings in the book. I actually liked it, except for the intro. That was a rough intro, and I was expecting to DNF this but I read it on one leg of my flight. The intimate times between Arron and Margot are just right, I liked that they were having a hard time communicating, even at the end. I felt that Arron maybe was confessing his undying love for Margot a little early, but then I remember I AM reading a romance, and a harlequin at that. Overall, if you like highland romances I would recommend this one but it was not the best I have read.
