CLARE -- Clare lived most of her life in the Abbey and hoped to marry the Lord of Wickerly Castle, until word came that he was dead. So with no reason to stay, she went to Scotland with her sister, Greer, and did not speak of her grief. But her uncommon beauty tempted all the Highlander men, and soon jealous women were demanding she choose a husband. The man Clare loved was not dead, but could he find her in time to keep her from taking a Highlander husband? DOLEE - After three years of marriage, Dolee desperately wanted to give her husband a son. She tried every remedy anyone suggested including potions that made her deathly ill. At last there was no other option -- Dolee would have to try the one thing that might cost her everything -- including her life. CATLIN - Known as Bridget Cameron, Catlin's mother was adamant -- if ever Catlin heard the name "Charlet," she was to go straight away to find Laird Neil MacGreagor. Now her mother was dead and the English were searching for Charlet. But who was Charlet and why had the English put a bounty on her head? The answer left Catlin speechless. LASHA - As the sister of a laird, Lasha Haldane knew she was expected to marry within her small clan. But one look at the handsome Cowan MacGreagor tempted her otherwise. Then a Haldane asked for her hand and the decision could no longer be put off. Would Lasha follow her heart or would she choose to please her beloved brother?
