Page Count: Approx 270 pages

A Cause holds his attention…a new life for the lady’s maid…and violence all around!

For Prudence Newhurst, a new life has just begun; one that she never before could have thought possible. No longer a lady’s maid to Lady Claudine, she finds herself the proud owner of a cottage and an open door ahead of her regarding her life. Whatever she chooses to do, it is her own choice at last, and no one can make it for her. However, when a handsome stranger literally appears at her front door, her whole life is changed in an instant, as he bears a wounded man who needs her healing skills.

Prudence’s life will never be the same, but she could never have dreamed that her skill would take her so far from the home she cherishes. Now she’s called upon to help the Cause, but even as she nurses to health the wounded and finds herself drawing closer to a man she never asked for, the fighting draws ever nearer. She wonders if there is an end in sight…and whether they will live to see it.

An Earl Without a Plan

Alexander Lachlann, heading toward battle with his fellow Jacobite uprisers, is suddenly caught off guard when he meets a stunning beauty in a tiny Highland cottage. The woman, he assumes the widow of a soldier, might not have been Scot, but he soon realizes that she shares many of the same passions he holds dear, though her relation to the Cause is as yet undetermined beyond her ability to heal its wounded.

When circumstances force him to abduct the pretty healer and run for their lives, Alexander’s view of the Cause changes almost overnight. He goes from fiercely loyal, dedicated to his dying breath in honor of his late father, to doubting his devotion. Now he’s faced with a hard decision—leave the woman he’s coming to cherish and fight another man’s war, or stay with her and lose everything his father worked for in life?

Violence Dogs Their Steps

Before the two can decide on their future, violence erupts all around them. Alexander is tasked with marching to Culloden, in what appears to be a final stand for the brave Jacobites, and Prudence faces a threat of a different nature. Violent men are everywhere, perpetuating violence on everyone, and she realizes that all she’s ever loved is in immediate danger…

Will Prudence find a way to escape the violence and just make it home to whatever is left of her lovely cottage—or will violence end her life? Can she dare to dream that she might one day have a future with the man who laughed at her former status?

Should Alexander deny his birthright and cling to the woman he realizes has captured his heart, or should his loyalty to the Cause, his brothers in arms, come first? Does their love stand a chance when faced with such ferocious odds—or should they give up and simply hope for the best in the short time they have together?
