A two hundred year old blood feud between the Kincaids and McLeans has erupted once more when the youngest McLean appears to have been killed by one of the Kinkaid brothers. Fiona McLean resolves to end it by abducting the carousing, gambling, womanizing Jack McLean and hauling him before a priest to marry her because she claims she’s with child – his.

When he wakes up with a bump on his head and finds that he didn’t dream up the wedding, Jack decides to force Fiona’s hand and carts her off to his London mansion where he thinks he has more control. Fiona broke his heart 15 years earlier and he’s never given it to another woman. Jack realizes he’s stuck in the marriage, but believes he can continue in his former ways.

It was a nice afternoon diversion waiting to see how long it would take Jack to declare his love and hoping that they would survive one of Jack’s murderous gilted lovers.
