The Scottish Cavalier: An Historical Romance, Volume 2 (of 3)
Scotland, 1640s. The Covenanters have risen against the Crown, and Walter Fenton, young soldier of the Royalist cause, finds himself caught between the hammer of history and the heart's treacherous ground. As the war between Covenant and Cavalier tears the Highlands apart, Walter must navigate not only the bloody politics of a fractured kingdom but also the perilous terrain of forbidden love. Volume II deepens the stakes: allegiances are tested, secrets unravel, and the romantic entanglements that began in Volume I grow ever more tangled amid the smoke of battlefields and the whispered intrigues of noble households. Grant writes with the visceral energy of a man who knows his Scotland - its rough beauty, its fierce loyalties, its talent for making martyrs and villains in equal measure. For readers who want their historical romances with actual history: genuine 17th-century intrigue, religious fanaticism, and the particular desperation of loving someone your cause forbids you to claim.
