Rhys seeks not just any bride but Madeline in particular to secure his claim to his Welsh estate. The Scottish nobles assembled for the sale are outbid by Rhys FitzHenry, a mercenary and reputed traitor whose only insignia is the Welsh dragon. Desperate for a wedding that could help hold the family estate together, Madeline's brother, Alexander, decides to auction her off. From Publishers Weekly:Īt the start of this lyrical medieval-era romance from Delacroix ( The Warrior, etc.), Lady Madeline of Kinfairlie refuses to marry after the loss of her betrothed, presumed dead in the French wars. Claire is an avid knitter and traveller (even though she can't knit on airplanes anymore) and lives in Canada with her husband. Claire has well over two million books in print, which include historical romances as well as contemporary and paranormal romances published under the name Claire Cross. THE BEAUTY, part of her successful "Bride Quest" series, was her first book to land on the New York Times' Extended List of Bestselling Books. Since Claire's first medieval romance - THE ROMANCE OF THE ROSE - was published in 1993, she has won numerous awards and accolades. A confessed romantic dreamer, bestselling author Claire Delacroix always wove stories in her mind. THE BRIDE AUCTION became THE BEAUTY BRIDE which published in January, 2005 THE BRIDE THIEF became THE ROSE RED BRIDE, coming out in June 2005 and THE BRIDE WAGER became THE SNOW WHITE BRIDE, coming out in November 2005.
The Jewels of Kinfairlie trilogy is here! There was an excerpt of THE BRIDE AUCTION in the back of THE WARRIOR - but after that book went to press, the titles of all three books were changed.
