England 1814: Reticent Scottish Lord pursues Mouthy, Independent, American Woman She is an outspoken American orphan with a questionable past and a dubious purpose. He is a man of few words on the lookout for a traitor. How could they NOT get along?
Mrs. Amelia Chase is a highly-opinionated, 23-year-old woman from America on the run from her past with a penchant for self-preservation and a healthy love for Shakespearean insults. Much to a certain Scotsmans dismay:
She isnt:
Quiet not with her tendency to talk to everyone about anything
Demure highly overrated if one cannot wear red and show off ones curves
Equine-savvy she once fled some currish, toad-spotted, coxcombs er, villains in a stolen carriage at a pace slower than a meandering walk. Oh, and mistook a common mule for a thoroughbred. But other than that
And she is:
Brave Smart, Loyal, Witty. Er, charming. Plus, Modest, Lonely, Secretive Um, forget that last part
And In love with a distrustful Highlander of all things
Lord Alaistair MacLeod is an agent for the Crown and a man with secrets. He doesnt speak of them, he doesnt dwell on them, and he certainly doesnt let them define his future. Much. One thing is for certain, he definitely doesnt share his confidences with a peery, outspoken American woman who is obviously trouble, acts highly suspicious, and is far too nosy for her own good No matter:
He is always:
Focused men who cannot stay to task are foolish
Pointed and Reserved enough said
And he isnt:
Cheeky like a certain American firebrand
Led by his ahemeven when following on the heels of a curvy, red-wearing ahem
Or In love especially not with a Troublesome, Meddlesome, so-called Independent American Woman
Can he trust enough to embrace such an enigmatic woman? Can she awaken the passions of such an intensely private man?
