This deserves 10 Stars! This was an epic story that piqued my interest from the very beginning. Andrew d'Vant, the man they call The Red Fury is the best mercenary in all of England and Scotland. When a woman seeks his help he is initially intrigued, but also reminded of his past and he wishes to assist her. He feels this might help him atone for his past. He lives with this hurt in his heart everyday. When the Red Fury meets Josephine de Carron, the Countess of Ayr and Chief of Torridon Castle, he is amazed by the beautiful warrior woman. He really has no room for a woman in his life. He only has vengence and fury in his heart, which he is bound and determined to obtain. Helping this beauty will change his life and he is sure of this, the more he comes to know her.

For the past 2 years, she and her 14 Knights and clan members have had to fight too frequently to keep them from taking over what belongs to her. When one of her Knights, the commander of her Army, suggests and recommends contacting the Red Fury to assist them she reluctantly agrees. She feels it is much better than the alternative. She knows it will be expensive, but if it can result in ending their current situation for good, then she knows she must do it. What she was not prepared for was to have her heart captured by The Red Fury.
