Surrender by Pamela Clare

Should be available now! Summary from site: Surrender, my next historical novel from Leisure Books, will be in bookstores the first week of March 2006. Surrender is the first book in a new historical series featuring three Scottish brothers from the Highlands of Scotland - Iain, Morgan and Connor MacKinnon. Forced to immigrate to the American Colonies after their clan was all but destroyed at the Battle of Culloden, the MacKinnon brothers grow up on the Colonial frontier, where they befriend the nearby Mahican people. Grown men when the French and Indian War begins, they choose to stay out of the conflict - until a British officer with a grudge against their clan frames them for a crime they didn't commit and offers them a terrible choice: Fight for Britain, or be hanged. With their survival skills and knowledge of the frontier, they form a company of Rangers, the elite fighting force of its day. Click here for more info I have to admit ever since Nicole started to wave her advance copy around I have been looking out for Surrender. I loved Ride the Fire, so much I even bought Pamela's first contemporary novel, Extreme Exposure. And that was at a time I wasn't reading much contemporaries at all. Surrender has a great excerpt up. And Pamela Clare is having a contest over on Alison Kent's Blog. She also answers some questions, talks about Scottish men and the mixing of the Scottish Highlands and the American Frontier into one hero. Quick maili go read, ye ken you want to ;). Nicole has a great review up. And if you still want more info, Pamela Clare has a great article up at Dorchester - Highland Heroes in Colonial America. Pamela Clare did tell us a little more about what is next, for her, in the land of historical romance: Yes, SURRENDER is the first of at least three books. The next will tell Morgan MacKinnon's story. The third will tell Connor Mackinnon's. And then we'll see. I have planned a book for Joseph and possibly also Lord William Wentworth... But we'll see. Morgan's book will be out in May 2007. Connor's isn't scheduled yet.
