While searching for his son, he finds something he never expected: a woman to love.



If only she didn't hate him . . .



Clan MacCoinnich is the only family Magnus de Gray has ever known. But when a message catches up with him five years too late, he discovers he has more family than he thought. He has a son. He's determined to find the boy and bring him home to Clan MacCoinnich.



Brenna Maxwell loved her sister Bree with all her heart, but if she could reach beyond the grave, she would shake her until her teeth rattled. All Brenna ever wanted was to be a healer and even convinced her cruel father to let her leave the keep for training. While on the run, her sister died bringing the babe into the world, leaving Brenna with the precious child to love and protect.



She spent years hating this man she had never met. But then he saved her life. And he's kind. And it turns out he's not a womanizer at all, but a quiet warrior who struggles to say what he really means. He's just a man who wants to take care of his son and make up for the past.



How can she hate a man like that? A man determined to make her love him?
