SEEKING PEACE {Book 1, completed 100k manuscript} LADY EVANGELINE OF GRESHAMWAKE yearns to return to the land of her birth—to her vine-covered holding in France. Alas, her devious and quite oppressive papa refuses to permit her to leave the security of his English fortress. What she needs is an escort across the Channel. Barring all toads and weasels, she holds no particulars . . . other than a noble warrior with a courageous heart and a simple mind. Convincing her choice to form an alliance should be effortless. After all, what man wouldn’t heed God’s will? Last thing LORD RICON OF KYNCADE needs is a wife rambling on about God’s will. Only to gain his king’s aid to end a clan war, he must secure a marriage alliance with a vengeful English border lord. He’s confident he can prevent this war and end the other one . . . if Evangeline's schemes don't get either of them killed first.
STAYING FAITHFUL {Book 2, completed first draft} With her husband, the sheriff of Aberdeen, dead and buried, LADY ISOBEAU OF STRATHERNE intends live out her life instructing the local children how to read and write and to follow God’s commands. But her days of peace are continually interrupted by complaints of the erratic justice the nearby chieftain is dispensing. While the Bocce-obsessed man seems not to have a clever bone in his body, just looking at PAEN MACEACHIN is enough to distract her from teaching him how to govern wisely. So Isobeau does the only logical thing. She marries him.
UNTIL DEATH {Book 3, completed first draft} FIVE DE TORREY despises SIR JERICK CHATTAN. The lowland emissary had the nerve—the audacity—to kiss her widowed sister-in-law. Twice! Having put the past behind her, Five’s determined to honor God in all aspects of her life. Even if that means forgiving Jerick. Only when her uncle demands she marry Jerick or the feud between their clans becomes war . . . well, death holds no fear for Five. It’s love that sends her running.
GUARDING HONOR {Book 4, completed first draft} Three betrothals. Three dead fiancés. LADY ALINA MACEACHIN, like all of Scotland, knows she’s cursed. Before she leaves Scotland to join a convent in France, though, she intends on experiencing her first—and last—real kiss. Only she didn’t anticipate the fortitude of her chosen man. Despised chieftain LOCHLANN HETH has no intention of losing the honor he’s gained (or his life) to satisfy the whim of this strangely cursed beauty. Neither does he anticipate falling in love.
