She wasn’t supposed to be there Weary of her ex-husband’s relentless pursuit, Ginny Hughes flees to the one place he can never find her — the past. Now she’s traded one battlefield for another as she finds herself on the Culloden moor in time to witness the Jacobite’s final bloody stand against the Hanoverian army. From there, her simple plan goes from bad to worse when she finds herself amid a war of her own. Captured by a group of retreating Scotsmen, she fights for her freedom only to discover that her very presence in the past has changed history for the worst! With no other option but to mend what she broke, Ginny remains in the past to make sure that Bonnie Prince Charlie escapes Scotland as he should. What she doesn’t anticipate is, that amid all that was going wrong, a braw, handsome Scot would bring her something that felt so right. It was the last place he wanted to be After a year of blood and war, Cailin MacLeod wants nothing more than to return home and try to rebuild the life he left behind. Aiding in Prince Charles Edward Stuart’s escape after a devastating loss was the last thing he wanted to do. Or so he thought until a bonny, but mysterious lass appears to misdirect them. Determined to find out how Ginny could possibly know the details of their plan and what more she might be hiding, Coll takes her as his unwilling captive only to discover the next day she is all too willing to offer her assistance to their cause. Bound by loyalty to his country, Coll knows he should be suspicious of her motives, but soon discovers that fighting his attraction might be the hardest battle he’s ever fought. Now Ginny’s not sure she ever wants to leave Living history and experiencing it with all five senses was a dream come true, but the last thing she expected was to be able to immerse herself in it completely and in the presence of Bonny Prince Charlie to boot! However, it isn’t a man of royal blood who brings the past alive for her and strikes at the heart of her battered emotions. Coll MacLeod reveals himself as a man who can bring her something her ex never could. Confidence and pride…in herself. As she helps Prince Charlie evade the pursuit of the royalist militia, Ginny discovers there is no escape from the yearning of her heart. And maybe…just maybe, the realization that there is a man worth having after all.

The second book in the clever, sexy Desperately Seeking Duke series from USA Today bestselling and RITA award–winning author Caroline Linden. An Officer and a Scotsman Captain Andrew St. James always knew he came from a noble family, but his branch grew far from the wealth and status. Nothing shocks him more than learning that he now stands as heir presumptive to his distant cousin the Duke of Carlyle. There is much for Drew to learn and adjust to—but first he goes home to Edinburgh, to tell his mother and three sisters of their startling good fortune. A Lady and a Temptress Ilsa Ramsay yearns for some adventure and fun, not another husband. When she discovers the handsome soldier who sweeps her off her feet for a rollicking dance is her friend’s brother, soon to be an English duke, she tells herself he’s not for her, no matter how tempting he is. But one impulsive kiss, then another, and another… says otherwise. An Irresistible Attraction Drew means to marry a respectable, dignified Englishwoman—a very proper future duchess. The spirited Ilsa is none of that. Still, when she’s caught in a dangerous scandal, he leaps to her aid without hesitation. And neither family duty nor future obligation can make them ignore what’s in both their hearts.

Riveting selections from a 15-century account of Scottish history, one of Scotland’s national treasures. Writing on a small island in the Firth of Forth in the 1440s, Walter Bower set out to tell the whole story of the Scottish nation in a single huge book, the Scotichronicon— “a history book for Scots.” It begins with the mythical voyage of Scota, the Pharaoh’s daughter, from Egypt with the Stone of Destiny. The land that her sons discovered in the Western Ocean was named after her: Scotland. It then describes the turbulent events that followed, among them the wars of the Scots and the Picts (begun by a quarrel over a dog); the poisoning of King Fergus by his wife; Macbeth’s usurpation and uneasy reign; the good deeds of Margaret, queen and saint; Bruce’s murder of the Red Comyn; the founding of Scotland’s first university at St. Andrews; the “Burnt Candlemas;” and the endless troubles between Scotland and England. Weaving in and out of the events of Bower’s factual history are other subjects that fascinated him: harrowing visions of hell and purgatory, extraordinary miracles; the exploits of knights and beggars, merchants and monks; the ravages of flood and fire; the terrors of the plague; and the answers to such puzzling questions as what makes a good king, and why Englishmen have tails. This monumental work, in which the original Latin text appears side by side with a translation in modern English, was completed in 1998. It includes an introduction and notes that guide the reader through the complexities of Bower’s history and its background.
