Aveline Matheson will accept her father's wishes and marry the youngest Macpherson son even though trickery is to make it so. But upon his arrival, Aveline can't help the deep attraction she feels for him. Even though he's extremely large of frame and she is small, she looks forward to the intimacy they will eventually share. Jamie is determined to solve the mystery surrounding his brothers' deaths and put his father's mind at ease. Jamie knows it was murder and not accidents. All indications are that he must take caution, not only to protect his back, but the life of his bride.

Smoldering looks, passionate kisses and an eager bride sets the foundation for a blissful marriage. The desperate longing Jamie feels for Aveline and her determination to make him know she will not break is surely felt by the reader. This is not just a love story, but one of mystery, as well. Sue-Ellen Welfonder has a beautiful way of spinning a story. I look forward to her next book, BRIDE BY SEDUCTION.
