Hester Hughes is forced from her home in England to the Scottish Highlands to tend an ailing child.

Versed in ancient healing methods, she must make her way among superstitious, warlike people who are frightened to suddenly have a 'witch' in their midst.

Well, that assumption was just a slight miscalculation on Hester's part, but it may prove a rather dangerous one, truth told.

Seth McFarland is a Viking Warrior who does not believe superstitious nonsense, but he does believe, he would definitely like to get to know the beautiful red-headed, fiery lass the Fates threw into his life.

He feels an instant physical attraction. One he wishes to explore in minute detail.

Hester is an innocent woman thrown into the capable arms of a seductive male.

She leans on Seth's experience and guidance through her new existence. He teaches her the ways of a man and woman.
