The war is over, and Laird Ian MacDonald returned to his native Scottish Highlands to finally live a peaceful and quiet life with his young wife. But as it turns out, his wife is not ready to accept him. Why does the beautiful Shiles need a man who took her into his house without love, and then abandoned her for five years for the sake of military fun? Even if the laird was at least three times handsome and brave, he would not win her heart! However, the time of separation was not in vain for MacDonald. He understood a lot - he became softer and wiser. And it seems that he has learned to truly love.
