"First book in Rose Hunters trilogy is a page-turning tale."
Raised as proper English ladies, the Nash sisters' lives
take a downward slide at the death of their father.
Necessities always taken for granted now consume them.
Kate, a widow after less than a year of marriage, changes
from the lively, carefree daughter to the practical one.
She devotes her time to managing their meager finances.
Desperate to change the situation, Kate travels to a
wealthy cousin in Scotland, hoping to entice him into
marriage. Bad luck follows Kate, and she finds herself
stranded in a remote village. Christian "Kit" MacNeill owes a debt of honor to the Nash
family. Their father heroically gave his life to free four
young men awaiting the French guillotine for spying. A
baseborn Highlander, Kit's only family are the three
orphans, who travel to France. The betrayal by one of his
brothers devastates and destroys the family ties. Kit has
sworn to uncover the traitor, but a summons to escort Kate
interrupts his task. In Kate, he finds a young woman
determined to alter her future. Despite their different backgrounds, Kate and Kit are
attracted to one another. Falling in love with a poor
Highlander was not in Kate's plans. Now, she must decide
whether to follow her heart or wed her cousin for her
family's financial security. The first in Ms. Brockway's Rose Hunters trilogy, this tale
quickly captures the reader's imagination. A powerful hero,
a courageous heroine and a villain lurking in the
background make it a page-turning tale.
