Descriptive and captivating, The Highlander's Bride presents a vivid picture of Scotland in the early 1500s, drawing both the people and the place in memorable colors.  In a world of larger than life men, Alexander MacGregor, next in line to be Laird of Ironwood, has been ordered to wed a friend's daughter, beautiful Lady Katherine Gordon.Lady Katherine values her education more than her beauty, recognizing that few women are granted the knowledge she holds.  But in a rough land where women are bartered and wed off at parents' will, and battle training is a daily ritual for men, Katherine lacks the one thing she cherishes--a union based on love and trust. How could her parents, who loved her and encouraged her unique abilities, betray her by forcing her to wed philandering, callous Alexander MacGregor?Secrets of birth and a young man's indiscretions impede but don't destroy the love growing between the young couple, but when unspeakable evil tears them apart, the battle is not one for love, but for life.
