Beyond The Rough Bounds

If memory is its own exquisite prize, then so too is its lack . . . It is 1795, and Scotland is gripped in dark times as the raging hand of the Highland Clearances squeezes the north. Yet even the Lowlands have not escaped the wrath of revolution. Abandoned bleeding near the border town of Gretna Green, Bethany wakes stripped of more than her clothes. With no memory, nor family, treachery and torment lurk at every turn. Utterly alone, and desperate for a forgotten home, Bethany must unravel the secrets of her past if she is to secure her future. But along the way, she'll discover there are those who can be trusted. And those who cannot . . . When a chance encounter with Highland rogues, Calum and William MacLeod, leads to work on a nearby farm, the forward Angus Bell moves in and the fist of fate grips tight. As both friend and foe close in, it's only a matter of time before Bethany is crushed between loyalty, love, and a fast-unravelling past. Although friends may walk at our side, in the end, life's toughest struggles are always with ourselves . . .
