Britain is divided as war between the feudal Celtic lords of Scotland and the noblemen of England grips  the northlands. Along the border between the two warring factions lies Bayloroch, an estate owned by Darach Murtaugh, a minor Scottish noble sworn to Alexander, King of Scots. Faced with the growing conflict, Lord Murtaugh must now determine where his loyalties lie: with his own king and his Scottish pride, or with the ever-tempting offers of protection and safety for him and his family as a subject of the English King Harold. Will Darach accept the English King as his sovereign, or remain loyal and true to the Red Lion of Scotland?All Rights Reserved

Chattan Bride by Maria_York_Author

READERS' FAVORITE FIVE STAR AWARD WINNER - As the daughter of a strong English baron, Isabel is compelled by peace negotiations to become the child-bride of the enemy, the powerful, handsome and fierce Scottish Laird of the Chattan clan, Alysandir. Her youth and his distaste for a marriage alliance with his enemy render her strenuous efforts to win the approval of her husband almost futile. Even though she failed him in a hopelessly complex situation, why would he allow his former fiancé to get away at an attempt to kill her? When her dying father calls her home to England, she is forced to be braver than her years as her exiled, murderous half-brother, Gilbert, attempts to wrest control of Bamborough Castle, their family home, from her father, who was determined to never allow Gilbert the inheritance. Could Alysandir, her wizened warrior husband soften her battle-hardened heart, protect her from her treacherous half-brother and win back her love? Growing up amid the border wars taught Isabel to be strong, cautious and adaptable. Fighting in those wars made Alysandir inflexible, distrustful but patient and brave. Could he secure his lands and keep his new bride safe from those who wished to harm her, or even protect her from herself? After breaking her, could he gather her back to himself and teach her to trust him before her half-brother and brother-in-law kill her over a piece of borderland?
