Claimed by the Scottish Lord
~~Scotland has never been so hot!
The Dragon’s Captive
Raised as an orphan behind the walls of Hope Abbey, Rose Lancaster’s sheltered upbringing never
prepared her for a man like Lord Roxburghe. The fabled “Black Dragon,” Ruark Kerr hasn’t been
seen in his Scottish homeland for more than a decade—and now he has burst into Rose’s
protected world to take her hostage, intending to trade her life for the life of his young brother. But
Rose does not fear this savage, powerful lord…and she guards a dangerous secret.
Villainy called Ruark back to the borderlands, but now that he’s claimed his “prize” his path is less
certain. If he does not turn her over to his enemy, a boy may die. Yet gentle, lovely Rose soothes
his vengeful spirit, and the longer she remains by him, the hotter his passion for her burns.

Hello Fellow Romance Lovers:
As many of us in the US are preparing for fireworks and outdoor barbecues in celebration
of our upcoming holiday festivities, I would like to announce I also have a book out!!
Claimed By A Scottish Lord hit the shelves on June 29th. I hope you are able to pick up
the book. As always I love reader feedback. Comments from my readers all over the world
help. I learn a lot from the questions asked and it always helps in my research for
upcoming books. I work hard to get things right in my books down to the proper names
for birds that are in Scotland and England. I have now learned that "chickadees" are
called "tits" and there are no groundhogs in England. LOL (I guess that would be like a
kangaroo siting in Illinois) My bad. Live and learn! So do not be timid, my dear readers. I
really do welcome comments.
In other news, I have not yet heard from my contest winners. If your name is below please
contact me.
Rose and Ruark are larger than life characters and even I was a little in love with Ruark by the story’s end...
the action scenes and love story make this an exceptionally good read. Maura~~Reviewer for Coffee Time
