Because of a secret not hers to tell, spinster Rachel must marry quickly, and Angus is the first man who comes to mind. He's a hard worker and strong. She's seen him eyeing her and senses hunger in his gaze. Rachel goes to Angus, the local blacksmith, alone at night and asks him to marry her.
Although eager to accept her brazen offer, Angus is suspicious, thinking it's some kind of prank and she's been put up to this to embarrass him. After all, what would a lady like Rachel want with the likes of him? His work is hot and dirty, and his lineage doesn't exactly have the pedigree ladies look for.
When he realizes she's sincere, his heart won't let him refuse her, but even the road to a quick, convenient marriage isn't smooth. Angus keeps his feelings for Rachel hidden. After the ceremony, Rachel finds a distance she can't bridge…until tragedy strikes.
