Determined to fight against Federalist rule, the scandalously independent beauty championed her cause in a manner both dangerous and forbidden, undaunted even by the magnetic stranger who threatened her secret -- and her heart. Born an English nobleman, the charming, influential earl abandoned the peerage to become a staunch Federalist and member of Alexander Hamilton's inner circle. His relentless yearning for Jacqueline Holt threatened all reason, but he vowed to have her -- despite evidence branding her a traitor to their fledgling country. Torn between honor and betrayal, loyalty and desire, they would dare to forge their own destiny, divided by intrigue -- and consumed by love.

A CASE OF NERVES 6/1999 ISBN: 0505523124 Standing on the moors in Scotland, Alec Lachlan could have stepped right off the battlefield of 1746 Culloden. Tall, ruggedly handsome, with just a sprinkling of freckles on his straight nose, and decked out in full Scottish regalia, Alec looked like every woman's dream, but was one woman's fantasy. Kate MacGillvray wasn't expecting to be swept off her feet by the strangely familiar green-eyed Scot; she had come to the moors to escape her philandering fiance and the hectic Philadelphia ER in which she worked. But she was a sucker for a man in a kilt; after all, her heroes had always been Highlanders. Wrapped in Alec's strong arms, Kate tasted forever in his kiss, and knew she had met him before - centuries before. And she wasn't about to argue if Fate decided to give them a second chance at a love that Bonnie Prince Charlie and a civil war had interrupted over two centuries earlier.
