Oath

For years, the five clans ruling the Isle of Skye have been trapped in a constant battle for control over the land. The enmity between the Glenelg, the Cuillin, and the Ruairidh is bitter, the fighting barbaric, and the atrocities committed against each other unspeakable. So many lives had been lain to waste that the island's population is now under threat. And yet, no other battle was as bloodied as the one between the Tormods and the Farrows. After Eddard Tormod's father, the clan's bloodthirsty Laird, decides to unleash a vicious attack on the innocent Farrow clansmen and women, Eddard gets caught in a whirlwind of injustice he cannot escape. When the mission fails tragically, Eddard cannot help but blame himself for it. Had he not let the Farrow lass who fled the attack bewitch him, his father would be still alive, and his brother would be in one piece. Eddard swore an oath to the girl that day to thank her for saving his life, putting his pride aside and living to fight another day. But at what cost? Ten years later, the struggle for dominion still rages. Faced with the impossible choice of marrying a man twice her age, Agnes Farrow seeks out the boy who swore an oath to save her from a fate she considered worse than death. Yet now she finds a man staring at her as though she were his worst enemy, and death suddenly seems like a fate approaching fast. He had sworn a solemn oath and was duty-bound to see it through. But now, the bells of death are about to sound again, wreaking havoc on Eddard's and Agnes' land and their hearts. "Oath" is a standalone prequel to the series, "The Isle of Mist and Wrath," packed with breathtakingly action, secrets, twists, passion, and sizzling romance, set in the tumultuous Scottish Highlands!
