 A Rose
Marjory Macpherson felt rebirth at hand. She'd known fifteen years of winter since her parents' brutal murder at the hands of the rival Cameron clan. But now Ewen--the enemy son she'd been forced to marry--was dead, killed by a rockslide. Marjory rejoiced. She could shed her thorns...at least, until her husband's father returned.
Is A Rose
Yet, was her husband dead? When Marjory went to retrieve Ewen's body, she found instead a living breathing man, covered in blood, talking strangley but very much alive.
By Any Other Name
Though he wore her husband's face and kilt, Marjory recognized salvation. Whether this was a kinder Ewen or another who, as he claimed, had been transplanted from the future, the man she'd found was a starnge new beginning, the root of something beautiful to come. It was time for Crannag Mhór to bloom again: a rebirth bringing with it the promise of true love. |
 RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:
There are only a few authors who can make the Time-Travel theme work for me, and Dee Davis is one of them. I enjoyed this story very much.
Finding out her husband is dead, Marjory does not have the typical reaction. She's actually happy that he is dead. He was not a kind man and theirs was always a marriage of convenience to stop the feuding between the two families. But then she remembers how her father-in-law will react...by hurting her and those she cares about.
Going out to recover his body, Marjory is surprised when she sees his body move. Sure that the devil has eluded death, Margory screams and faints in shock.
Not sure why she screamed when she saw him, Cameron is confused about where and how he ended up somewhere he doesn't recognize.
Back at the castle, Cameron is sure he's been mistaken for someone else. But he's intrigued by Margory and wonders how he can make her understand that he's not the man she thinks he is.
