  • "At 29 Temperance O'Neil is happily married to her work helping single mothers on the streets of New York. Her new stepfather controls the purse strings to her substantial inheritance and insists she quit her career and live in his house in Edinburgh. She is asked to pose as housekeeper to her stepfather's nephew while trying to find him a wife. James McCairn, the nephew, is the Laird of Clan McCairn. He's a rough-mannered giant interested only in farming. His stables are immaculate, his horses gleam with care, and he lavishes personal attention on his sheep, but there are pigeons roosting in the kitchen and chickens in the bedrooms."@en
