Love Long In The Grave, A Lonely And Broken Soldier, And A Ruthless And Greedy Uncle...
For Dowager Countess Amalie Inverkeith, life has been sad for the last five years, broken only by the joy of watching her young son turn into a man. Now he’s run off and joined the Jacobites, soundly defeated at Culloden, and received a grave wound for his trouble. If he’s to survive to take over the estate of his father, the late earl of Inverkeith, he must have help…and soon.
In a frantic rush to find only the best healers, Amalie heads to her friends at Duncliffe Manor. They will know what to do. When she arrives, and after ensuring that her son is in good hands, she soon spots something awry, and wonders if they will all face death soon.
A Wounded Soldier
In more ways than one, Bronan Ludlow has known what it is to be wounded in life. He grew up in a home filled with abuse, especially toward his mother, who abandoned him years before to his abusive father. Now he’s a soldier, well-trained and battle-hardened, but a gunshot wound leaves him at the mercy of the elements. He knows all too well that he must escape the crush of the Hanoverians, who have just won the war, it seems, because they will show no mercy now.
Wounded, bleeding, and desperate, he stumbles upon what he believes to be a castle, and finds himself swept up by healers—and fever. His wound is grave, but they are relentless, as is the angel who helps tend him during his delirium. When he recovers somewhat, he wonders if he will ever learn the identity of the beauty who so delicately brought him from the brink of death itself…and is stunned when she is a very-much alive woman.
Danger At Every Turn
For Amalie and Bronan, theirs is a love forbidden by the Highlands. She is a thirty-five year-old widow of an earl, mother to a fifteen-year-old son, and he is several years her junior, of no social status whatsoever. The gap is insurmountable, and they know that the instant attraction must be ignored, no matter what their hearts say.
When the odds are against them at every turn, their love continues to find a way to survive, and thrive, in the wilds of Scotland. Even a ruthless duke intent on ruling everything cannot stop true love, or fate—if only love can survive the swing of a sword!
Will Amalie give in to the desire of her heart—or are the demands of society and the best thing for her son more important than even the call of true love?
Should Bronan forget the beauty who has captured his heart, knowing that she’s far above his station? Or should he pursue her with the same passion that he can no longer hide within his heart?
