The Stolen Bride in Italian

My medieval romance, The Stolen Bride, is now available in an Italian edition!

Al mio unico desiderio is the Italian edition of The Stolen Bride, book 3 of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix

Ramsay MacLaren ha un debito con la figlia del Falco di Inverfyre, un debito che non dimenticherà mai, perché quella seducente bellezza lo ha aiutato a fuggire dalla prigione del padre, salvandogli la vita e catturando il suo cuore. Quando viene a sapere che sta per sposare un uomo noto per essere un furfante, Ramsay deve avvertirla, anche se crede che non potrà mai reclamare Evangeline per sé.

Ribelle per natura, Evangeline Armstrong è rassegnata ad accettare il matrimonio combinato con uno sconosciuto, ma continua a sognare di rivedere Ramsay MacLaren, il bel fuorilegge nemico giurato di suo padre, il cui solo nome le fa sussultare il cuore. Durante il tragitto verso la dimora del promesso sposo, un gruppo di briganti attacca la carovana di Evangeline. Il capo è proprio lui, Ramsay, che cerca di convincerla a non sposarsi, prima di rubarle un bacio che perseguiterà i suoi sogni.

Evangeline scopre presto che Ramsay le ha detto la verità quando è l’unica testimone del crimine atroce commesso dal suo promesso sposo. Sola, a parte la fidata serva, fugge e riesce a scampare al tentativo dell’uomo di ucciderla con l’aiuto di Ramsay, che è deciso a sposarla per proteggerla. La loro notte insieme risveglia il desiderio di mille altre notti, e fa sì che Evangeline desideri ardentemente un’unione proibita che teme non potrà avvenire. Può fidarsi di un guerriero il cui bacio le scuote l’anima, preferendo lui alla propria famiglia? Anche se Ramsay riuscisse a sconfiggere il promesso sposo e a difendere l’onore di Evangeline, sarà in grado di conquistare il cuore della donna che lo tiene in schiavitù?

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

Ramsay MacLaren owes a debt to the daughter of the Hawk of Inverfyre, one he will never forget‚ for the beguiling beauty helped him escape her father’s dungeon, saving his life and capturing his heart. When he hears that she is to wed a man he knows to be a knave, Ramsay must warn her, though he believes he can never claim Evangeline for his own.


Rebellion in her heart, Evangeline Armstrong hopes for the best from her arranged match with a stranger, dreaming all the while of a single encounter with Ramsay MacLaren, a handsome outlaw, her father’s sworn enemy, and a man whose very name makes her heart leap. Brigands attack her party en route to the wedding, and Ramsay himself corners her, insisting she must not make the match, then steals a kiss that will haunt her dreams.

Evangeline soon learns the truth of Ramsay’s claim when she is the sole witness of her betrothed’s heinous crime. Without allies in his abode, she flees his attack upon her with Ramsay’s aid—who insists they wed for her own protection. Their night together only awakens a desire for a thousand more—and makes Evangeline yearn for a forbidden union that she fears can never be. Can she trust a warrior whose kiss stirs her very soul, choosing him over her own family? Even if Ramsay can defeat his lady’s betrothed and defend her honor, can he win the heart of the lady who holds him in thrall?

Coming Soon – The Stolen Bride

Next up on my release schedule is The Stolen Bride, Evangeline and Ramsay’s story and book #3 of the Brides of Inverfyre. This one has been pushed back a number of times but I’m working on it now. I plan to publish in January, but when I created the new pre-order at Amazon this week, I set it for February publication. This is because AMZ allows me to move publication dates up but not back. So, I’ll see where we’re at on January 1 with the plan of moving the AMZ date into January (because the book is done). If not and I’m way behind, then the other portals will let me move the date into February.

So, here’s the cover and the copy, with the shiny new AMZ link. This book will also be available in trade paperback and – as usual – the GooglePlay link will populate on the on-sale date.

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 January 15, 2024.
