The Draig’s Woman by Lisa Dawn Wadler  

The-Draigs-Woman-850_edited-1-copyAbout The Draig’s Woman by Lisa Dawn Wadler

Rescuing the man tied to a tree seemed like a rational decision. Claire is a smart, capable bookkeeper who happens to work at a martial arts academy. She has no idea the door she walked through to save the bound man would leave her trapped in 13th century Scotland. She is unable to regret the night of passion shared with Ian, even though it happened with the threat of death just outside the door. She pretends to be content with Ian’s friendship, knowing his people must come first. Compelled by honor and tormented by desire, is being his woman, while he marries another, enough?

Ian, Laird of the Draig Clan, is a man trapped by fate. Forced by necessity to marry a woman he has never met, her dowry is essential to save his clan. However, he is in love with the woman who saved his life and then spent one night in his arms. Duty prevents Ian from being able to marry Claire as custom, honor, and his heart demand. Drawn to her, believing they share the same desires and dreams in life, he finally offers her the only option available, a place by his side and in his bed.

Claire and Ian are bound together in love and then ripped apart by deception and a plot to destroy the Draig clan. Facing the final battle alone and unarmed, Claire saves them all. The ultimate challenge is forgiving Ian for sending her away.

After meeting Barry, the cute boy next door, Heather uncovers a few interesting facts that might help unravel the mystery. She wants his help, but getting Barry involved means exposing her “gifts” and potentially putting both their lives in danger.

Because if she’s not careful, these terrifying visions might be driving Heather straight into the killer’s lair.

Author Bio:
The inspiration for ‘kilrB3 Media’ springs mostly from Mark’s experience in raising the three killer “B’s” … Brandon, Blake, and Brianna.” Many an evening spent reading stories from the Sugar Creek Gang, Danny Orlis, The Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and others fueled imaginations for weekend adventures into the outdoors.

For many years, both Mark and his wife Donna have been very active with church youth groups and students from all walks of life. Mark currently travels the globe as a Market Development Manager in 3D printing while staying active with teaching a Sunday College & Career class. He’s worked with young people, both teens and young adults, for over 25 years having held positions ranging from volunteer Junior Church programs to staff Youth Pastor, from sixth grand and high school teacher to Varsity Athletic Director, and from summer camp sponsor to directing youth activities.

Mark’s desire for the Barton Family Adventures is to spark young people’s imagination and interest while challenging the perception that “being a Christian and serving God is boring.”
