Sarah MacAlpin has always felt like an outsider. Raised by her Scottish grandmother deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Sarah grew up with one foot in the old world and one foot in the new world. Her childhood friends were the stuff of ancient Celtic legends. But Sarah's seemingly idyllic past hides a horrifying secret. As a little girl she watched her mother's inexorable slide into madness. But she hasn't let her past stop her from reaching for her dreams. She has managed to put together a pretty good life for herself. She has great friends, a boyfriend, and her career as a folklorist is all planned out. That is until she meets Dermot Sinclair. The handsome Scot seems to be dogging her every step. At best he's a fellow folklorist who can help her research. At worst, he could be there to steal her work. All she has to do is find one song that proves her thesis and her dissertation will be done. Unfortunately, unlocking that song may also mean unlocking some buried memories and a dangerous destiny set in motion generations ago.

When Sarah left her home in North Carolina, she had two goals in mind: get answers about her mother and get her man. Unfortunately, no one seems to want to cooperate. Working side by side with Dermot Sinclair she throws temptation in his way every chance she gets. But something is always holding him back. So, Sarah devotes her time to researching the mysterious Highland village where her parents met. Of course, she can't find it on any map and her so-called gift can't help her. She has to turn to folklore for clues. Meanwhile, Sarah is being pursued relentlessly by Scotland's most eligible bachelor, James Stuart whose generous gifts and lavish attention may prove irresistable. All Dermot wants to do is keep the women he loves safe, but he is torn between Sarah and the needs of his ailing mother. Watching his childhood friend, James attempt to romance the woman he loves may be more than he can take.

The traumatic events of The River Maiden have left Sarah MacAlpin's life in shambles. Her best friend won't talk to her. The man she loves says they can't be together. She's just discovered something that destroys the main thesis of her dissertation. To top it off, she's learned that her dream fellowship in Scotland was given to her with ulterior motives by her billionaire benefactor. Sarah has to choose whether to accept the fellowship anyway or try to find a different path. Meanwhile, she's battles her own personal demons and questions about her family. She hopes to find some answers in her mother's memoir. What she finds are some upsetting parallels to her own life. Like Sarah, Molly left Kettle Holler on the verge of making her dreams come true, but her ambitions were derailed by a family secret that took her across an ocean and left her a broken shade of her former self.

A prophecy foretold their partnership, but is it doomed from the start? Every time Sarah MacAlpin tries to escape the Stuarts' web of ambition and intrigue, she gets pulled in deeper. Now, she's lost everything; her career, her lover, and her freedom. As she learns to navigate a new world as Lady Sarah, she delves into the secrets underpinning the Stuarts' belief in their shared destiny. She also confronts how her particular gift can help them reclaim the throne of an independent Scotland. Will she set aside her principles to help them as only she can? James Stuart finally has what he wanted. All the pieces are in place for the future that was promised in the prophecy. He has the woman he was destined to marry, the wealth, and position to help him retake the crown. He can finally move toward the goal his family has been working for all his life. When he discovers the price of building that future, will he continue to follow the plan his family made for him? Dermot Sinclair's life has been one of duty and responsibility. He was raised with the expectation that he would protect the interests of the Stuarts at all costs. As a boy it made him feel like a warrior in the sagas his mother studied. He even joined the Army to train for the job. He was prepared to do his duty until he met Sarah. Meant for someone else, she challenged every notion he had about his life and his future. How is he going to go on without her? When the three of them uncover a dark family secret, and the malevolent force that has been manipulating events, they'll have to choose whether to stay on the path that was laid for them or make their own.
