Hawk, a Highland Laird, is principled, gorgeous, sensual and prone to mistrust. Rumors say he can have any beautiful woman he wants. Due to jealousy, his king has betrothed Hawk to Janet Comyn, a homely deranged woman. After Janet's father kills her a replacement is required. Adrienne, a 21st century woman is time-ported to his century where she is forced to take the part of Janet. Hawk sends his best friend to stand in as proxy at his wedding. Needless to say Hawk is captivated by the beauty and intellect of "Janet". Adrienne pays him no mind which drives him crazy. The couple are being toyed with by the Dark Fool of the Fae who has his own reasons for hating Hawk and as Adam he vies for Adrienne. I liked the main and secondary characters especially Grimm. I came to hate Adam as he cruelly manipulated the couple.
