Summary

"Can memories of a tragic, eighteenth century love triangle be passed down through a descendant's DNA? A compelling, almost mystical attraction draws American designer Fiona Fraser into the force field of visiting Scotsman, Alexander Maxwell, through an eerie happenstance one steamy summer's day in New York City. When Fiona's mercurial boss dispatches her to Edinburgh to create a Scottish Home Furnishings Collection, the chemistry deepens as she and Alex discover their ancestral bonds to the star-crossed lovers Thomas Fraser--the "Lost Lieutenant"--and Jane Maxwell, the flamboyant 4th Duchess of Gordon who died in 1812. From the cobbled streets of Edinburgh's Royal Mile to the tartan and cashmere mills of the Scottish border country, the modern lovers grapple with the imminent threat of financial ruin to their respective firms, along with ancient wounds echoing down through time--and a heartbreaking mystery, hidden for more than two centuries, that will dictate their own destinies"--Page 4 of cover
