A man's home may be his castle, but for American millionaire Rhys McCain the ancestral fortress he inherited from his Irish kin is also the backdrop for scandal...and murder. As if disgruntled servants and greedy relatives weren't enough to fill McCain's plate, the arrival of Jennifer Wells soon promises to put the wealthy industrialist's life on the line...and his heart in the line of fire. On loan from a Virginia law firm to assist McCain in his home office, Jennifer's cool professionalism is put to the test when it becomes apparent that her charismatic employer has a devastating secret that someone is willing to kill for. Can she convince him to trust her with his family's past, or will his Irish stubbornness put both of their futures in jeopardy?
