The stunning sequel to The Pride of Lions!
In a novel that sizzles with passionate intrigue and breathtaking romance, Marsha Canham whisks the reader back to war-torn Scotland as a legendary warrior fights for the two things most precious to any man: his country and the woman he loves.
She was born an Englishwoman, but he made her a Scot, pledged to fight for her beloved husband--even against the country of her birth.
Catherine Ashbrooke Cameron had committed the unpardonable sin of falling in love with her husband--a Scottish spy she married in her English home. Now, as she raced to the Highlands, into the strong, tender arms of Alexander Cameron, the innocent English beauty would learn the passions of war--and the price of love . . . .
He fought to keep her safe as he battled the English enemy--and betrayal from within.
Alexander Cameron was a man with a price on his head and enemies to burn. Love had made the legendary warrior vulnerable. Now he must protect Catherine from the dangers that threatened them both. But as he rode into battle against the English, she refused to stay behind. He had claimed her, touched her, loved her, and she vowed nothing would ever separate them again.

Review:
This sequel to The Pride of Lions is as much saga as romance, in that Catherine Ashbrooke and Alexander Cameron are already in love and married when this vivid retelling of Bonnie Prince Charles Stuart's bid for the British throne opens. Nevertheless, there's plenty to keep one's interest--sexy lovemaking whenever Catherine and Alex can circumvent the separations imposed on them by the Jacobite rebellion; a moving, all-consuming sub-romance between a loyal servant woman and a burly Scotsman; a mystery concerning Catherine's parentage; and terrific Scottish flavor conveyed through landscape, speech, and colorful historical figures. Detailed descriptions of politics and troop movements, concluding with the Battle of Culloden, give this long, well-written narrative the flavor of an historical novel. The story ends with a confrontation that's both dramatic and surprising.
