Description

Mary Queen of Scots is on the throne, and the frontier between England and Scotland is a powder-keg.

A feisty English heiress...
More interested in raiding into Scotland with the rest of her clan than womanly pursuits like embroidery or finding a husband, Alexandra Graham is a strong-minded English heiress who rides and fights as well as any man. But when a daring rescue goes wrong, she ends up in the dungeons of Scotland's most forbidding castle, prisoner of the notorious Earl of Bothwell and at the mercy of the queen's justice.

A brawny Scottish laird...
As deputy warden responsible for keeping the law on the queen's borderland, Michael Cranstoun is a Scottish laird with a reputation for fair-mindedness and the looks of a viking warrior. But when he meets the beguiling Alexandra, both his life and his honour are at risk - not to mention his affections.

A love divided...
With more than just the border separating them, Alex and Michael are on opposite sides of an ancient divide, and destined for different paths. But a shared love for horses draws them together and kindles a passion that respects no boundaries, endangering more than just their hearts...

:: Set in Mary Queen of Scots' lawless Borderlands, A Love Divided is a stand-alone Scottish historical romance with a HEA. If you like strong heroines, brawny lairds and sweet romance, you'll love the first book in the Mary’s Ladies series. Pick up your copy today!

    Made it more than half way through and there still was not tons of development on our main characters relationship. Too much description and emphasis on secondary characters and historical information to keep my attention
  • Really excellent

    I almost never leave reviews but I had to for this one. I only read what I find for free on iBooks and my expectations are low for most of the fiction. This is a really well crafted story and it is clear that much work was put into the research to set it properly. I will absolutely buy the others by this author. I have been reading more light romance lately and wasn’t sure if I would keep reading this at first but it drew me in to Alex and Michael’s story and kept me interested. I enjoyed learning about Queen Mary also. The equestrian in me also appreciated accuracy with the horsey bits where most novels fall woefully short.

    I wouldn’t recommend this book. Too much description on every place they passed in their travels and on the clothes. Nothing exciting happened. I am sorry to say that the book was boring.

    What a lovely, heartwarming & exciting historical romance Ms McInnes created with A Love Divided! It’s also a tale of borderland revivers & imprisonment by a diabolical lord! Mary Queen of Scots herself plays a large role in helping Alex & Michael fulfill their dreams for a happily ever after❣️ I’m looking forward to reading the entire series, you will too!👍. Carol R.
