This is not my type of book, but it was given to me so I read it. It was actually a very light and fun book to read.

Evelinde lives at her late father's estate, her brother is off fighting the crusades and she is under the care of her "wicked" stepmother. Her stepmother will do anything to make Eveelinde's life miserable to the point that she arranged a marriage through the king with the Devil of Donnachaidh. It has been rumored that he killed his father, uncle and late wife. Could this actually be true?

Cullen, Laird of Donnachaidh known as the Devil of Donnachaidh does not care what people think of him. He is the Laird of Donnachaidh his main purpose to find a wife to bear him sons. He kind of likes the fact that people are scarred of him because challenges and war stops before they even start because of his reputation.

Evelinde is married and they start for the Laird's castle immediately. When she settles at the castle she decides to find out who killed the Laird's father, uncle and late-wife. This action of hers starts a firestorm of events. She bewitches the Liard and he of course fights it. I have never been able to get into Lynsay Sands Vampire series and was relucant to read this book, but I am glad I did!
