Highland Treasure in the Moor Lena Cochran

Gavin MacKenzie's reputation as the best warrior of his clan precedes him wherever he goes, making him the favored target-particularly by the MacDonnell Clan. The MacKenzie Clan's latest scheme is to steal sheep from the MacDonnells-but a trap is set. Barely escaping, Gavin is injured and left for dead. Una MacDonnell, the MacDonnell clan chief's daughter, finds him. Risking her own clan's wrath, she helps him survive. Visited by a mysterious ghost-like hag, Gavin and Una learn their clans used to be friends-until the curse. If the curse can be reversed by finding a mysterious quaich, all warfare will cease. Gavi and Una consider the news nonsense, nothing but mythical lore. But as Una and Gavin grow to love each other, Una will do anything to lift the curse. She sets out to find the legendary quiach so she and Gavin can be free to marry. In turn, Gavin goes to her father to surrender, praying his bold act will stop the killing. It doesn't, and now Gavin's life is about to end. The only thing that can save him now is Una's success in finding the quaich-if it exists at all.
