Karen Ranney wanted to be a writer from the time she was five years old and filled her Big Chief tablet with stories. People in stories did amazing things and she was too shy to do anything amazing. Years spent in Japan, Paris, and Italy, however, not only fueled her imagination but proved she wasn't that shy after all.
Now a New York Times and USA Today bestseller, she prefers to keep her adventures between the covers of her books. Karen lives in San Antonio, Texas.
In book two of the Highland Lords series a stranger to his ancestral Scottish lands, the dashing nobleman comes to the Highlands to reclaim his birthright , only to find something more wondrous and unexpected awaiting him: his bride!
Through scrupulous historical detail and fluid prose, Ranney brings 18th-century Scotland to life in a vivid story that engages the reader from start to finish. Following One Man's Love, the story of Alec Landers and Leitis McRae, the second entry in Ranney's Highland Lords series charts the exploits of their eldest son, shipbuilder Alisdair McRae. When Alisdair returns from Nova Scotia to claim his family's lands, he discovers that they are now owned by Magnus Drummond, a cruel, avaricious man who will only sell the land if the deal includes marriage to his strong-willed daughter, Iseabal. Alisdair complies, believing he will be able to annul the marriage later, but he soon realizes that the task may be easier said than done. While sailing toward London to deal with his unexpected inheritance, Alisdair finds himself increasingly intrigued by Iseabal's silent strength and unusual hobby she carves stone figurines. After accepting his inheritance, Alisdair finally accepts his wife and is married to her in truth, but before they can enjoy their future together, they must overcome Magnus, who is determined to reclaim the land he sold even if it means killing Alisdair. A well-plotted, dramatic Highland romance, Ranney's latest adds little to this well-trod genre, but readers will still savor her full-bodied characters and smooth prose.
