The Stolen Bride Cover Reveal

The Stolen Bride, book three of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

The Stolen Bride is Evangeline and Ramsay’s book, book three of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval Scottish romances. This pair met in The Runaway Bride and there’s a lot of energy between them. Evangeline, of course, will be expected to make a strategic marriage but won’t be pleased about it. I’m thinking Ramsay will offer the perfect temptation for her to defy her father, the Hawk, and to evade her arranged marriage. Hmm. But why does Ramsay want to marry her? Evangeline may think she’s jumped from the fat to the fire…

This one will be published in December 🙂

The Stolen Bride, book three of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

She will be no man’s prize….

Evangeline Armstrong is resolved to evade the strategic marriage arranged for her by her father, the Hawk of Inverfyre. She feigns compliance, intending to flee to the king’s court for protection once her party is away from Inverfyre. Instead, she is seized by Ramsay MacLaren, an outlaw and her father’s sworn enemy, and compelled to wed him.

Ramsay MacLaren owes a debt to the eldest daughter of the Hawk of Inverfyre, one he will never forget‚ just as he cannot forget the beguiling beauty who helped him escape her father’s dungeon. He has learned that no other woman can satisfy him, though he knows the Hawk would never allow their match. When Ramsay witnesses Evangeline’s departure with only a small party, he sees his chance and claims her for his own.

In morning’s light, Evangeline fears that Ramsay’s sweet words were solely to earn her capitulation—and support his claim to Inverfyre. All the same, she cannot regret the marvel of his touch. Does she dare to trust the warrior whose kiss ignites her very soul? For his part, Ramsay finds himself captivate by the woman he has taken to wife—even at the expense of his own plan for vengeance. Can he truly destroy all of import to her to avenge the past? When Ramsay is challenged by Evangeline’s wealthy betrothed, how can he choose between his vow to his family and the lady who holds his heart in thrall?

Evangeline and Ramsay’s story is coming December 26, 2024.

More Books Enrolled in Kindle Unlimited

I’ve enrolled more books in Kindle Unlimited, so if you’re a KU subscriber, here’s your chance to binge-read!

These series were enrolled in KU at the beginning of the month:

The Bride Quest (including two boxed sets)

The Champions of St. Euphemia (including the boxed set)

The Rogues of Ravensmuir (including the boxed set)

As well as One Knight Enchanted, One Knight’s Return, Pearl Beyond Price and Unicorn Bride.

This week, I’ve added:

The Beauty Bride, #1 of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix
The Jewels of Kinfairlie
The Renegade's Heart, #1 of the True Love Brides series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix
The True Love Brides
The Mercenary's Bride, #1 of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval Scottish romances
The Brides of Inverfyre
The Last Highlander, a Scottish time travel romance and romantic comedy by Claire Delacroix

I also enrolled my Time Travel Romances.

Because everything is enrolled now, I could add the Boxed Sets.


As mentioned previously, Blood Brothers will not be enrolled in KU before the series is completed (and maybe not then.)

The Brides of North Barrows will not be enrolled in KU either, because those stories are included in anthologies that are in wide distribution.

Beguiled, a collection of short stories and romances by Deborah Cooke and Claire Delacroix

The only outlier at this point is Beguiled, my collection of short stories. Because The Ballad of Rosamunde is enrolled in Kindle Unlimited, Beguiled can’t be available at other retailers—but because the other stories are in wide distribution, Beguiled can’t be enrolled in KU. So, the ebook of Beguiled is available only at Amazon.
