Highland Rose

The Castle
Buffeted by tie howling wind from the moor, Cumbray Castle stood dark and fo boding, as a defenseless woman labored to bring her innocent babe into a savage world. For lurking in the shadows like an evil spirit stood an enemy who had sworn the tiny girl-child would never live to take her rightful place as mistress of Cumbray.

The Changeling
Exquisitely beautiful, titian-haired Alyssa knew nothing of her noble birth, or the strange twist of fate that had saved her life but doomed her to cruel poverty. She never guessed her blood was as blue as that of arrogant Blake Sinclair, the Highland laird who had taken her virginity but refused to make her his wife.

The Court
Drawn to the glittering court of tragic Mary, Queen of Scots, Alyssa was unaware of the fierce intrigue surrounding her, or the secret enemy who threatened her very life. Yet most dangerous of all was the burning desire that lured her back into Blake's strong arms for a taste of forbidden ecstasy that would change their lives forever.
