When Noci is taken by the Scottish clan and cast into a cage, like an animal, the only person who can save her is Taracut. He agrees to rescue her but only after she offers the use of her body to satisfy his every dark desire. With their agreement she will take all his sexual abuse for her freedom, the only problem with the plan is that she enjoys his dark pleasure as much as he and soon craves it.

Louisa Trent pens an excellent tale of a time when brutality is the norm. This would not be a story for someone looking for a sweet loving romance, or wine and roses, but for someone who likes to push the limits in sex play. This one is excellent. I loved the way the author pulls the reader in and transports them back to this brutal time. She keeps them right in the middle of the action and feeling what Noci goes through, while at the same time keeping right in there with Taracut and his struggle to handle his new found feelings and emotions toward Noci. This is a dark tale that at times seems almost cruel, but Ms. Trent writes it in a way that it doesn't completely overpower the ultimate story of love and passion and truly makes it work. I would highly recommend this one to anyone looking for a great story with a darker side.
