HIGHLANDER'S HOPE (CASTLE BRIDES) ***Amazon Kindle Bestseller*** ***The Romance Reviews Top Pick*** Not a day has gone by that Ewan McTavish, the Viscount Sethwick, hasn't dreamed of the beauty he danced with two years ago. He's determined to win her heart and make her his own. Heiress Yvette Stapleton is certain of one thing; marriage is risky and, therefore, to be avoided.  At first, she doesn't recognize the dangerously handsome man who rescues her from assailants on London's docks, but Lord Sethwick's passionate kisses soon have her reconsidering her cynical views on matrimony.  On a mission to stop a War Office traitor, Ewan draws Yvette into deadly international intrigue. To protect her, he exploits Scottish law, declaring her his lawful wife-without benefit of a ceremony.  Yvette is furious upon discovering the irregular marriage is legally binding, though she never said, "I do." Will Ewan's manipulation cost him her newfound love?  ***Though this book is part of the Castle Brides series, it is a stand- alone novel. ** ****Be sure to check out the Highland Heather Romancing a Scot Series, a spin-off of the Castle Brides series. ** ** ### Review *"*Thoroughly **captivating Regency romance**." ~*Lusty Penguin Reviews* ** ** ** *"*From beginning to end, this novel is **absolutely marvelous**!" ~*My Book Addiction* ** ** ** ** *"*This story has wonderful imagery, characters you will enjoy and enough suspense to make for an exciting read." ~*My Reading Obsession* ** ** "I loved this story! Highlander's Hope is an **engaging read that I couldn't put down**!"  *~So Little Time Blog* ### From the Author ***Highlander's Hope*** (Castle Bride Series) was inspired by a single scene;  the Banbury Inn scene where Ewan finds Yvette asleep in his chamber. The entire novel was written around that scene.  Originally, it was titled "Love Hath No Fear" and then, "Love's Fearless Embrace."  Obnoxious, I know!  I cut the manuscript from 156,000 words to just over 85,000. Can you imagine?  Gads!  I hope you enjoy meeting Ewan and Yvette. Several of the characters in the story get their own books. Vangie and Ian are in The Viscount's Vow which releases from Soul Mate Publishing in the fall of 2013, and Adaira and Roark are featured in The Earl's Enticement (May  2014).  Stay tuned for the six-book saga, **Highland Heather Romancing a Scot Series,** about Ewan's other siblings and cousins.
