The Rose and the Thistle

18th Century Scottish Historical Romance

I don’t know about you, but about this time of year I’m hankering for a vacation. You know. Escape the cold, the snow, the incessantly long and dreary days. But this soon after the holiday season my credit card is still smoking, so funds for a wingding of a winter escape are…well… There aren’t any.

But that didn’t stop me from going to Scotland and it shouldn’t stop you either.

Hold on. Before you go calling Dave Ramsey to ream me out, I’m talking about a fantastic new book that will sweep you away to the Scottish highlands, where braw muscle men abound in their castles—and where you’ll fall in love with a certain earl and his fair countess.

The Rose and the Thistle is author Laura Frantz’s latest masterpiece. Set during the Jacobite rising of the early 1700s, this story is action packed…one you won’t want to miss. Here’s a blurb:

Amid the Jacobite uprising of 1715, an English heiress flees to the Scottish lowlands to stay with allies of her powerful family. But while castle walls may protect her from the enemy outside, a maelstrom of intrigue, shifting allegiances, and temptations of the heart lie within.
