Read OnlineViolet Buccleuch is like most American colonial women, except she's in love with two men at once, has a sniper's eye, wears breeches more than dresses, finds herself in a revolution, oh, and happens to be immortal. Mayhap she's not exactly like most other women. Ach, but she wants to be.**A Chanticleer Paranormal Winner** In the midst of the Battle of Concord, Violet Buccleuch wakes to look down at the gaping hole through her heart. Two months before In February 1775 she lives the life of a normal colonial woman. Though normal is a stretch of the word, since she wears breeches and farms to provide for her sister and mother. However, she knows well of expectations for her to settle down and marry. Her sights are set to wed her childhood friend, Mathew Adams. But fate and a French spy, Jacque Beaumont, falter her best intentions. Her heart is pulled in two directions as one man offers what she desires; the other saves her after violence and grief rip Violet’s life apart. Then the battle that erupts the American Revolution rages in her yard, forcing Violet, with a rifle in hand, to choose her own fate. But destiny deals her another blow. After she sips what appears to be innocuous water, she finds herself impervious to . . . death. Now immortal, Violet rushes to lend her sniper’s eye for the battle, which she hopes will save the man she vows to love.
