THE HARLOT Dundee, 1715.  Her survival depends on a bargain struck with a handsome stranger…
Accused of witchcraft like her mother before her, Jessie Taskill finds herself behind prison walls, awaiting certain death. All she craves is to be free of witch hunters and united with her siblings at home in the Scottish highlands—where mystical ways are not punished, but accepted.
Salvation comes in the form of a roguish priest, unlike any man of the cloth she has known. But Gregor Ramsay is as far from holy as the devil himself. Gregor does not believe in magic, but has a canny plan to use the pretty harlot as bait to lure his enemy. His promise of freedom in return for her services could represent Jessie's passage home to the highlands.
Then undeniable passion flares between them and emotion conflicts with their individual goals. Jessie begins to resent Gregor's plan to have her seduce and ruin his enemy—especially when Gregor himself is so masterful and compelling. When the time comes for Gregor to send Jessie into his enemies lair, Jessie thrives—nourished by their physical passions—and everything Gregor thought he knew is rent asunder.
