Secrets can destroy everything. In the rugged highlands of Scotland, Ysenda Ramsay, a fierce and skilled archer, patrols the treacherous terrain to keep her people safe. But her nights are haunted by shadowy visions, and the specter of a stalking beast that may be more than just a dream. When an avalanche on a precarious ridge sends her tumbling with the man she can't stop bickering with, Ysenda realizes that danger lurks not only in the physical world but in the shadows of her own past. Lewis Haggert, a guard for the Matheson lands with a concealed shame, has buried his secrets to secure a respected position. Yet, sparks fly between him and Ysenda, and surviving the avalanche ignites a longing for a connection beyond banter. As their feelings deepen, Lewis is forced to confront his past, unraveling the mysteries that threaten not only their love but also their lives. For Ysenda and Lewis to forge a future together, they must confront the demons within and unearth family secrets that could shatter everything. In a race against time and the ghosts of the past, Lewis is determined to be the man who not only saves their love but also helps Ysenda conquer the fears that hold her captive. Will they emerge victorious, or will the shadows consume them both?
