Off the New England coast, courageous Mehitabel Ampleford wields a rifle to protect her home from a brutish band of men who are after her land. She will not be intimidated, but their attacks are growing fiercer, and just as their latest confrontation threatens violence, a bold stranger appears out of the ocean mists to send the raiders packing.
Geordie MacEnroy has seen the ravages of war in his mountain town—and in the injuries suffered by his youngest brother; now, his restless soul is calling him to find sanctuary by the sea. His long journey to the beautiful coastline of his adopted homeland feels like a new beginning as lovely Mehitabel, so wise and self-sufficient, offers blessed hope for healing his brother's wounds. Geordie envisions a beautiful life with her as his bride, but a woman who has fought so fearlessly for her home may not willingly surrender all for his love . . .
"This will be a hit with fans of historical and Scottish romances."

Geordie MacEnroy has a yen to see the ocean again, even if it means venturing hundreds of miles away from his family's homestead in the Ozarks. The idea also appeals to his brother Robbie, who is in search of innovative treatments for old wounds that refuse to heal. The brothers venture east and then up the coast of New England where they encounter a woman defending her land from a band of thieves. Geordie steps in to help, but Mehitabel Ampleford is easily disperses the crowd without his interference. Allowed to stay on at Belle's place, the MacEnroys enjoy their time by the sea and learn that Belle may have the medical expertise that could help Robbie's recovery. Belle finds Geordie's desire to help his brother and protect her home endearing but also knows that his heart belongs to a land elsewhere. Geordie, however, is beginning to see life on the coast in a new light, largely because of Belle's presence. VERDICT Series fans will appreciate this next chapter in the adventures of the seven MacEnroy brothers and the women who love them, especially as Howell ("Murrays" series) moves the story to a New England coast setting.--Kellie Tilton, Univ. of Cincinnati Blue Ash
