A Scottish Destiny Gwen Kirkwood

1920. When seventeen-year-old Marie Sinclair travels to Strathlinn to visit her brother and his family, all she is looking for is rest and recuperation after the death of Lady Hanley, for whom she had been caring over the past eighteen months. But when her pregnant sister-in-law is rushed to hospital, the lives of her and her twins in danger, Marie is forced to take on a far greater role within her Scottish family. And who is Mark Blackwood, the new young Estate owner, who seems only interested in machines and who is struggling with the unfamiliar responsibilities of running the estate and gathering rent from tenants who are not always inclined to pay? Meeting him on the train to Strathlinn, Marie's life becomes entwined with his, as friend, help-meet - and, maybe, something more...?
