The Pride of Lions by Marsha Canham
Bestselling, award-winning author Marsha Canham sweeps us into the turbulence and romance of Scotland's quest for freedom in a saga of two born enemies whose lives and destinies are irrevocably bound to the fate of an empire. Forced into an unwanted marriage by a reckless game of chance, how was the spoiled and pampered Catherine Augustine Ashbrooke to know the handsome stranger with the brooding midnight eyes would make her the pawn in a dangerous game of his own? Alexander Cameron may have won the highborn English beauty in a duel, but not even the lure of long-forgotten desires could keep him from his meeting with destiny. He had no choice but to carry his reluctant bride off to the Highlands, to a world of ancient blood feuds and a brewing rebellion--a world where fiery passion and breathtaking courage would prove that even legendary warriors could lose their hearts. Contains mature themes.Marsha Canham lives in Toronto, Canada, and is the award-winning author of twelve historical romances. Although not yet being a member of the half-century club, she is looking forward to holding her first grandchild this August. An unexplainable and deep interest with eighteenth-century Scottish history prompted her to write The Blood of Roses and its precursor, The Pride of Lions. The Battle of Culloden was fought on April 16, 1746, negotiations for The Pride of Lions began on April 16, 1985, and the final words of The Blood of Roses were penned on April 16, 1988, among the numerous remarkable coincidences that occurred during the three years it took to write the two novels. Neither of the last two incidents were anticipated.
A third party brought them to the author's attention. Pale Moon Rider, her latest historical romance, will be published by Dell in December.
