When you marry the wrong man, your death is the most final settlement of all.

Orphaned as a child, heiress Morganna Hutton dreams of creating the perfect family she never had. Sheltered, isolated and naïve, she falls in love with the handsome Archie Edge, but her desire for a loving home blinds her to his true character.

After she gives birth to their daughter, she begins to suspect Archie's real motive is to destroy her and use their daughter to unlock her fortune.

When she uncovers the truth, Archie tries to kill her, and goes into hiding with their daughter. From the grand houses of Long Island, to the wilds of Scotland, we follow Morganna as she discovers the courage and ruthlessness she needs if she has any hope of tracking them down and taking back her daughter - the one person who taught her the real meaning of love.
