The beautiful Miss Catrìona (Leòideach) MacLeod, is a young woman who lives in the highlands of Scotland however Bonnie Prince Charlie's rebellion has failed and the Stewart Prince has escaped to Skye. With his escape the Duke of Cumberland wanted revenge and to crush every jacobite left, clan chiefs were stripped of their power and kilts and tartan are banned changes are needed in this time and people are leaving. It's the highland clearances and Catrìona has to stay strong to survive through this bleak future of broken traditions and lost dreams. (Just a warning but this will probably include more adult ideas and be sexist, possibly racist if there are slaves but please remember I am not sexist or racist and these themes in the book are there because it's the 18th century and women were seen as objects and the slave trade and slaves were a huge operation and business. Sorry if this sort of thing bothers you. The painting I think was by Joshua Reynolds and has nothing to do with the story but represents what Catrìona looks like, also I reasearched before I did this and here is the link for the reasearch, https://www.nts.org.uk/stories/jacobite-stories-the-aftermath-of-culloden. I have never wrote any fan fiction before and my grammar will probably be quite bad so I'm sorry about that. I also looked for Scottish Gaelic names to use and I will just have her last name as Macleod but the Gaelic version is at the top. I hope you may give this a read if it interests you. It will probably go quite slow but hopefully someone will read it. - BelleMcIntyre)
