Ewen "Hunter" Lamont is a minor chieftain and part of Robert Bruce's Highland Guard. He is also an expert tracker. He has been given the task of bringing Janet of Mar back to Bruce, which will bring an end to Janet's being a spy. The two shared a pretty steamy kiss awhile back and neither of them have forgotten it.

Janet of Mar is head strong, loyal and very pretty. She's also a very good spy. She has considered taking her vows as a nun so she won't lose her freedom. She views marriage as serfdom. Ewen is a typical male of the times with his views on where a woman's place is. He can't stand that Janet is in danger all the time.

This is not Monica McCarty's best work. I hope the next book in this series is back up to her usual standards. Very few people can write Scottish Highlander romance well. She is usually one of them but this one fell short.
