Journey to Enchantment

 " ."

Time: June 1746

Foreign Titles: Geliebter Rebell German

Synopsis:
A JOURNEY OF LOVE AND DANGER ... AND A VAST TREASURE
Beautiful, flame-haired, fiercely independent Prudence has two passions: Scotland and the heroics of Ligun Doone, scourge of the hated Redcoats. And she is shocked when her father takes one of those Redcoats--a wounded English soldier--into their home on the shores of Loch Ness.
But soon Prudence begins to suspect this Englishman is more than he seems--she fears that he is a spy even as she begins to surrender her heart. What's more, she is suddenly embroiled in a daring plot to rescue rebel Scots and smuggle a cypher containing the location of Bonnie Prince Charlie's lost treasure. This is her adventure of a lifetime, with even greater treasures to be found on her.

Foreign Synopses:
Geoffrey Delavale, der zunŠchst ein vehementer Verfolger der schottischen Rebellen ist, mu§ bald erkennen, das die grausame UnterdrŸckung der Bevšlkerung gegen seine †berzeugung verstš§t. Er nimmt einen anderen Namen an und wird als "Ligun Doone" zur Legende. In Šu§erster Gefahr findet er bei der Familie MacTravish Schutz. Die bildhŸbsche und temperamentvolle Prudence MacTravish ist erbost Ÿber die Einquatierung des ver- meintlichen feindlichen EnglŠnders, doch ihr Herz wei§ nichts von Patriotismus und wendet sich bald dem attraktiven Gast zu.
