When is a curse a blessing and a blessing a curse? Sassenach, outlander, Lady Catherine was all of these to Lord Duncan Macrae. Even worse he suspected she was a witch that killed her husband and now King George II sent her to him to marry as the price for his son Allan returning home from the Tower of London. Duncan swore on the rocks that the Castle was built on that the Lady in front of him would not take his dead wife's place in his heart. She would wish she took to an Abbey and spent her whole life in prayer, not just tonight. Lady Wolferton, The Choosing is the story about a young beautiful English noblewoman who found herself caught up in the world of men where women were used to build alliances, wealth, produce heirs, and found they had little to say about who or when they married or how they were used, married or not. The fate of England and her own life was entangled in the world war going on around her where France and England and their allies fought for world supremacy and the potential for Bonnie Prince Charlie to make another attempt on the Crown was high on the list of things George II wanted settled before he left England in the hands of a young and inexperienced Prince. As was dealing with the powerful men in his own generation that would attempt to make the young Prince their puppet. King George II's time was growing short as the old King's health was failing. The Prince of Wales, a young George III, was being groomed to succeed his grandfather on England's crown. Lady Wolferton finds her past and present collide in a murder most foul as secrets come out of the royal maze and bedrooms, ghosts of the past rise, and relationships are revealed that put her own view of who is family and what is most important in question as each choice made sends her spiraling down a slippery slope between life and death. Nothing is simple, in love, war, or faith as she finds herself caught between what is best for the Crown of England and what is best for herself, the love of her life Captain William Gordon and his family, and the Scots that fought both with and against them in the Jacobite rebellions of 1715 and 1745.
