Overview

“Marylebone,” the sequel to best-selling “Dunnottar,” flits back and forth between London and the Scottish highlands during the regency era. Handsome young James Keith, wanting to remain anonymous, visits "the clubs" in London, where he encounters Caroline Kent, who has just returned from Vienna after studying the piano. Caroline is immediately enraptured by the mysterious Scotsman, but he seems to disappear every time she gets close to finding him. She calls on their mutual friend, the Duke of Hamilton, to help her locate him. Keith, who is using the alias Robert Paterson, swears Hamilton to secrecy, as he is on a personal quest to locate the Scottish regalia, which was hidden byt the Keith clan at Dunnottar Castle more than one hundred years earlier. Complete with two mysteries (who is the mysterious Scot and where is the regalia), throw in a famous person (Walter Scott), a secret which Caroline's father, the Earl of Kent, has kept buried almost as long, a surprise about the "mad King George," and you have the makings of a read that will delight you for a long time to come.

Editorial Reviews

Nina Osier
'Marylebone' is going to make you smile, and it's also pretty likely to bring tears to your eyes in some places. It's a very different book than its prequel, 'Dunnottar,' but it is every bit as well worth reading!

Meet the Author

magazine writer but her true love was her novels. “Dunnottar” was her first novel and it soon became the No. 1 Bestselling Scottish novel on Amazon for almost three months. Smith moved from Grand Forks, North Dakota after her husband of forty-two years, Ivan, died to northeast Wisconsin. They spent nine years as missionaries in Venezuela then ran a charitable "Helps" mission in Grand Forks for over thirty-five years. “Dunnottar,” like some of her other novels, is based on her genealogical searches. She has published seventeen additional novels and says she is living her life's dream.

    Romantic intrigue, engaging characters, historical accuracy.

    Romantic intrigue, engaging characters, historical accuracy. Vivacious and beautiful Caroline Kent, daughter of an earl in Regency England, bursts into a 'gentlemen only' area (that is, into a gaming room!) during a social outing. She takes one look at perfect stranger there, and falls madly in love with him. Okay, so far we're reading a romance novel set in a very popular era. One of many such novels...ho hum. Nothing could be further from the truth, though. The man who has captured Caroline's heart is a Keith of Dunnottar, a Scottish nobleman who's in London on a mission that must come before all else in his life right now. As James Keith pursues that mission (keeping his true identity concealed, even from Caroline, through much of the book!), he discovers secrets from an earlier era in his own family's history - and some rather more recent ones in Caroline's. 'Marylebone' is going to make you smile, and it's also pretty likely to bring tears to your eyes in some places. It's a very different book than its prequel, 'Dunnottar,' but it is every bit as well worth reading!
