A Highland warrior…an English lady…and a ghost…

Lady Marguerite Gracewell has not long lived in the wilds of Scotland, but she already loves her new home and is growing accustomed to life without her newly-married brother Henry. Visions of her own future, preoccupy her and most of them are bright with happiness. She is madly in love with a handsome man, though he has recently joined the army and left her for a season.

A Highlander Doing His Duty

Lord Douglas is the son of the earl of Duncliffe, and has hoped his whole life to gain the favor and admiration of his distant, cold father. His sojourn with the army has not seemed to draw them closer, and an ambush threatens to rip away his chance at reconciliation for good. A chance encounter—his return from the dead, it seems—changes his opinions entirely, but there is more to his life than his dreams of gaining his father’s approval. After all, beautiful Lady Marguerite is his true love, and she’s waiting for him…his light in the darkness.

A Ghostly Form of Madness

The lady has much to fear it seems, as her father appears to be descending into madness and has promised her to a vile man staunchly loyal to the Jacobite cause. She simply cannot wed him, though he tries to tarnish her reputation so that she has no choice. Her handsome Douglas must save the day, but in their escape, her reputation is once again at stake.

Her father begins to see visions of a ghost in his home, and Marguerite must calm the frightened inhabitants of Estmoor. When the ghost turns violent, it’s up to her to save them all—and Douglas—before it’s too late…but how can a ghost be the ruin of all she holds dear?

Is there more to the apparition than just a gray presence walking the estate—and what did the terrified servant girl actually see that fateful evening?

Can the lovers find a way to be together forever at last—or is their union to be short-lived, broken by their duties and her father's will?
