Surrender (MacKinnon's Rangers, Book 1)

From Publishers Weekly Clare's lush historical romance takes readers to 1750s New York, where the three MacKinnon brothers, Jacobites sworn to free Scotland from British rul e, have settled in exile. Iain MacKinnon and his two brothers, powerful Hig hland warriors trained in native American warfare, are falsely accused of m urder and forced to take up the banner of their enemy King George in the Fr ench and Indian War. While on patrol, Iain rescues a Scots woman who calls herself Annie Burns from the French and Abenaki soldiers who raided her hom e. Annie, who hides a tragic past of family betrayal and indentured servitu de, struggles with her newfound freedom and the mixed feelings she has for her saviors--so much like the Jacobite warriors who cut down her Loyalist f ather and brothers in battle. As Annie's ambivalence gives way to love, Cla re (Ride the Fire) explores 18th-century religious and political conflict o n both a personal and international scale. While her prose sports a hint of purple, believable characters, scorching chemistry and a convincing settin g make this a worthy read. (Mar.)
