Living in a house with little to no love from her parents-with only the girl who is her companion Penelope is always dreaming of a better life. Then her father decrees she is going to marry a Scottish Laid who she has never met and won't until the day before her marriage. She and her companion are sent off. Penelope is angry to say the least. What she does not know is that her future husband is no happier about all this--but he needs her dowry to keep his clan afloat!
As you can imagine it is rough at first. Her companion is always looking at the bright side of things and tries to convince her it will all work out--Meanwhile the Laird's best friend is attempting to convince him of the same thing. They do begin to at least like each other in between bouts of fighting.
Mishaps have been occurring for quite a while--and the Laird wants to find out who is behind all of it. Then Penelope is kidnapped---Oh boy--by now the Laird somewhat realizes he does love her-and he goes after her with the help of some neighbors. It gets bloody but as anyone could tell you--the good guy gets the girl and they live happily ever after!
This one literally kept me up all night reading-it was worth every second!!
