Ever since Christy English picked up a fake sword in stage combat class at the age of fourteen, she has lived vicariously through the sword-wielding women of her imagination. Sometimes an actor, always a storyteller, Christy works happily with Sourcebooks Casablanca to bring the knife-throwing women of her novels to life. A banker by day and a writer by night, she loves to eat chocolate, drink too many soft drinks, and walk the mountain trails of her home in western North Carolina.
In HOW TO TRAIN YOUR HIGHLANDER, Mary Elizabeth is the sword-wielding, stallion-riding wild woman from the North who steals the heart of Harry, Duke of Northumberland, when she still thinks that he is only a stable lad. But nothing, not dukedoms or Highland stubbornness will stand in the way of true love.
From the desk of Mary Elizabeth: (Actually, she wrote this letter in the stable, in her favorite horse’s stall, while hiding from her family)
She's the Hellion of Hyde Park...
A foolproof plan to avoid marriage:1. Always carry at least three blades.2. Ride circles around any man.3. Never get caught in a handsome duke's arms.Wild Highlander Mary Elizabeth Waters is living on borrowed time. She's managed to dodge the marriage banns up to now, but even Englishmen can only be put off for so long...and there's one in particular who has her in his sights.Harold Percy, Duke of Northumberland, is enchanted by the beautiful hellion who outrides every man on his estate and dances Scottish reels while the ton looks on in horror. The more he sees Mary, the more he knows he has to have her, tradition and good sense be damned. But what's a powerful man to do when the Highland spitfire of his dreams has no desire to be tamed...

Only 3 knives? And of course she can ride rings around most, if not all, men. She's a Highland girl, and that's part of the job description!!
