Frances Sweet can’t really remember her real parents. Brought up by her uncle, her cousins Ruby and Mary have always treated her like their little sister. As the war continues to keep her cousins separated from the men they love – Frances is growing up fast enough to catch the eye of dashing American soldier Declan. But she also has a greater longing – to find the mother who abandoned her years before.

Lady Aisla Montgomery has a perfectly tolerable marriage...as long as her husband stays in Scotland and she in Paris. But now, years later, she wants only one thing - a divorce. Niall Stuart Maclaren, the rugged Laird of Tarbendale, rues the day he met his beautiful, conniving wife. Though the thought of her incites a bitter and biting fury, no other woman has ever stirred his blood as hotly. When Aisla returns to Scotland to sever ties, Niall agrees on one condition - one week with him for every year of desertion. Six weeks as his wife in his castle in exchange for her freedom.

For years I have been urged to write my family's memoir. My first wife and all the women in her family died young. My daughters face the same battles as those women before them. I have put that story into this book...but only partly. Yes, there are important facts that are 100 percent true. But there are also some "non-facts" to keep the story moving. My children are in this book. They will recognize themselves in the characters, though not as their real names. My mother, the strong woman that she is, will recognize herself too. I used her real name.

Der Preis der Freiheit. Lady Aisla Montgomery führt eine durchaus erträgliche Ehe - ihr Mann bleibt in Schottland und sie in Paris. Doch irgendwann reicht ihr dieses Leben nicht mehr und sie will nur noch eines: die Scheidung. Niall Stuart Maclaren, der raubeinige Laird von Tarbendale, bereut den Tag, an dem er seine schöne, widerspenstige Frau kennenlernte. Der Gedanke an sie löst bittere Wut in ihm aus. Und doch hat keine andere Frau sein Blut je so in Wallung gebracht.
