About Lady Mairead: A Prequel (Kaitlyn and the Highlander, Book 13) (Unabridged)

The death of her first love reveals a dark and desperate truth — she is not in control of her life, in this heartbreaking novel about the betrayal of the men around her, discovering her strengths, and seizing the power of a king. I ran. I ran as if my life depended on it — I dinna ken what had happened tae him. The men who surrounded us, including my brother, the Earl of Breadalbane, had ripped me from his arms. They told me I would never see him again. They told me that he would die for having met with me in secret, for having sworn tae marry me, for taking me tae his bed. I raced through the gates and made it tae my mother’s chambers and dropped tae my knees in front of her. “Please, I beg of ye, help me.” __________________________ Thus begins the story of the antihero Mairead and her adventurous and sometimes malevolent heart. The mother of Magnus Campbell, she was born at Kilchurn Castle in 1651. Her rise through history is entwined with the history of the Campbell clan, the art of Picasso, 18th century France, the roaring 20s in New York City, and ultimately weaves with the time-traveling kings from the 24th century. Perfect for fans of Outlander and The Winter Sea, this women’s historical fiction weaves 17th century Scotland’s drama with a touch of time travel, and historical intrigue. A deep and tragic story with glimpses of the genre-bending, century-twisting, action-filled adventure to come, Lady Mairead is a prequel, and a back story, but more importantly it’s meant to be book 13 in the 18-book saga, Kaitlyn and the Highlander.
