Description
Step into the windswept moors and breathtaking landscape of the rugged Scottish Highlands in this gripping historical fiction novel. It is 1794, and Scotland is in turmoil! Almost fifty years after the Battle of Culloden, the notorious Highland Clearances rage in the north.
In fear of an uprising, the Duke of Dudley rules with an iron fist, mercilessly clearing his tenants to make way for more lucrative sheep. His young Duchess, Kittie Hall, becomes a pawn in a dangerous game of power and greed when she is torn from elegance and thrust into captivity. But when the Highlanders, and specifically her enigmatic captor, Moehill, are not the uneducated kilt-wearing barbarians she has been led to believe, she must navigate the treacherous paths of loyalty, betrayal, and forbidden attraction—but at what cost?
Perfect for fans of Diana Gabaldon. With its rich historical detail and deeply drawn characters, this novel promises to enchant lovers of history, historical fiction, and historical romance.
In her debut novel, Lisa Brookhouse brings you a captivating work of historical fiction that will keep you riveted until the very last page.
With men in kilts engaged in a wee bit of smuggling, and a kidnapped Duchess bred to the finer things in life, all cramped together in a tiny bothy amongst the heather-clad rolling Highlands, you’ll want for nothing!
