A Touch So Wicked by Connie Mason

Sweeping back to the 18th century, the bestselling author of A Breath of Scandal paints a vivid portrait of sensual romance. On orders from his king, Sir Damian Stratton arrives in the Highlands to prevent a wedding that would unite two powerful clans against the English crown. But his plan to spirit the bride off to a convent is foiled, for Elissa proves to be both headstrong and alluring. The only way Damian can keep the proud beauty from her intended laird is to wed her himself. And no matter how she protests, Elissa soon discovers that her dashing enemy can steal her heart as easily as he stole her freedom.
