The Laird of Kinfairlie's plan to arrange good matches for his sisters couldn't possibly be more successful. He's married off two of them, and they seem blissfully happy. But little does Alexander know, he isn't the only family member with a plan. Vivienne and Madeline think it's high time their charming brother got married too. They wager they can convince him to wed Arabella, the woman they have agreed upon-using any means necessary. Let the games begin! As a widow who believes she has already lost her great love, Arabella is looking for security. Locked in his bed-chamber, Alexander almost succumbs to Arabella's charms and seduction. But when real sparks begin to fly between them, the lovely Arabella begins to believe that maybe true love can strike twice - and the roguish Alexander can't help but wonder: why run from the one thing you never knew you wanted?
