The Laird of InverkeltieThe letter from Jeannie Deans' grandfather, asking her to make a long visit with him, couldn't have come at a better time. Jeannie's personal life is in tatters: she's lost her job, her engagement has just been broken, and she's recovering from a sharp bout of influenza.Making a clean break, she puts her life in Canada behind her and travels to Inverkeltie, in the Scottish Highlands, where she finds a warm welcome in the old family home, adored by her grandfather and cosseted by Ellen, the old family servant. Soon she is busily immersed in the doings of the village and making friends with all the people who knew and loved her mother as a child. But there is one person who seems to resent her arrival -- Logan MacPherson, the brooding, enigmatic Laird of Inverkeltie. As always, Miss Walters has created a charming, tender romance which will appeal to her legion of loyal readers and earn her many new fans. |

Island MistCastle MacKeough is romantic and historic, but isolated on a tiny island in the middle of Loch Keltie, which can be a dangerous place in a storm. When young Londoner Monica Fairchild comes to MacKeough to do research for her father's book on the Jacobite Rebellion, she is looking forward to peat fires and oil lamps, but she is unprepared to find herself stranded there for a whole week in the company of Brodie MacPherson, the handsome but taciturn owner of the island. Janetta's many fans will be delighted with the chance to renew acquaintance with the endearing characters they first met in The Laird of Inverkeltie. |

Hearts of the HighlandsJanet MacPherson has spent most of her life in New York City, but now it's time to return to her old home in the Scottish Highlands, where she still has family. She takes along her lovely young granddaughter, Margaret, to give her a chance to meet her many MacPherson cousins. And, Janet hopes, Margaret might be the very woman to tame the wild heart of young Rabbie Burns MacPherson, the black sheep of the clan. Margaret, unaware of the plans her grandmother has for her, is enchanted with the land and the people of the Highlands, and with the welcome she receives from all of her family. She is especially intrigued, however, with Calum the shepherd, whose weatherbeaten exterior and rough manner hide a surprisingly poetic -- and passionate -- soul. "Janetta Walters can always be counted upon to provide her readers with a romantic story that will transport them to a world of beautiful women and strong heroes. The third book of The Scottish Trilogy will no doubt prove as popular as its predecessors." Greta Grünhut, The People's Illustrated |
