Now, it is important she proves herself and changes her reputation. Morag plans to do wonderful things and make big changes in life in secret, just like her sister and cousins have done before her. But when she meets up with the mysterious knight, Sir Bedivere and finds herself falling for him, her plans go astray.

But when his last mission directly involves the beautiful, talkative Lady Morag, things become more complicated than ever. He's taken an interest in her, but he needs to think with his head and not his heart.
