Story
The year is 1744 and Prince Charles Edward Stuart is stranded in France, his hopes temporarily frustrated, as the planned French invasion to restore his father to the British throne has had to be abandoned. The prince, frustrated beyond endurance, makes an impulsive decision that will change not only the lives of the MacGregor family but the history of Britain forever. Meanwhile in London, Beth, bored to distraction by the inanity of society life, hatches a plot with her friend Caroline to free the timid Anne Maynard from the clutches of her domineering guardians.

Britain moves ever closer to the 1745 rebellion and the impending attempt to restore the Stuarts to the British throne. With no other options available to her, Beth marries the effete and tedious social butterfly Sir Anthony Peters. She resigns herself to a future of formal parties and dismal social gatherings whilst accompanying a husband who is both tiresome and physically repellent to her. But she consoles herself with the thought that if she is not to know love, then, at least she will have a secure and comfortable life.

Nearly killed while trying to win back his ancestral home, Black Richard MacCullough is left scarred and mangled; but some scars run far deeper than mere skin. No longer the handsome devil or kind man of his youth, now he focuses solely on rebuilding everything that was lost to the brutal Chisolms and traitorous MacRays. Revenge - while not nearly as important as keeping his clan from starving - is the only thing that keeps his bruised heart beating.

Publisher's Summary
The fourth book in the enthralling series following the fascinating lives of Beth and Alex Macgregor, their family and friends.
It is 1745 and the rebellion that the Jacobites have worked towards for so many years is finally under way. Prince Charles is in Scotland gathering the clans and they are rising, ready to fight and if necessary, die for him.
At his prince’s command, Alex, trapped by his own success as a spy, reluctantly remains in London with Beth. His clansmen, meanwhile, head north to join the rebels. Desperately unhappy, the couple try to convince themselves that their role is crucial to the cause, but hope that Charles will relent and allow them to leave London and join him. Their wish is granted, but not in the way they expect, and soon they find themselves fleeing for their lives.
In the meantime the Jacobites are gathering strength and heading south, winning decisive victories along the way. It seems that Prince Charles Edward Stuart and his followers will finally achieve their desire to regain the throne of Great Britain for King James. But the Duke of Cumberland is determined not to let his father be toppled from the throne by a bunch of heathen savages, and returns from Flanders to lead the Hanoverian army against them. Soon Beth and Alex find themselves at the heart of one of the most brutal civil wars Britain has ever seen, one which will put both their lives and relationship in danger, and which will change the history of Britain forever.
Join the rebellion of Beth, Alex, and the Macgregors as they fight for justice and freedom in the Jacobite Chronicles.

I can't believe I listened to all 4 books just to listen to this awful ending. No happy ending here. Just looked on Amazon and there are 2 more books. If I want to know the rest of the story I will need to buy the other books. It's not easy for me to read a book because my eyes are old and tired. NOT happy right now....

Beyond Words!
This series is terrific. So sad it has come to an end! I read the kindle version because I could not wait for the rest of the audio to come out. After hearing how wonderful Rosalyn Landor and Will M. Watt were in the first book I knew I would have to listen to the audio as well. While Rosalyn Landor is my favorite female narrator I had not heard Will M. Watt narrate anything before . He is such a tremendous talent! There could not have been another male narrator more perfectly suited to play both Anthony and Alex!
It's historical it's romance it's entertaining through and through! I will put this up with the few other books I adore that & will re-read/listen to again and again!

Exciting, Heartbreaking, Wonderful!
I was hooked from the very start and on pins & needles through the book, finishing in 1 day. This next book in the series lived up to the prior 3 books, but still broke my heart a little bit. The story, the history, the characters weave together to pull you into the story! Julia Brannan's excellent research for historical accuracy is woven seamlessly with stellar storytelling for a story that has me thoroughly hooked! This book takes us to the highlands and it was a whole new facet to the story with the incredible people, family connections, customs, and the rich history. It is heartbreaking and sexy and wonderful and exciting and I very highly recommend it!!!! Two thumbs, 8 fingers, & 10 toes way up!!
Will & Rosalyn once again deliver amazing performances with flawless narration of all the different characters and accents. Will is indeed the duet wizard with this masterpiece!!

Bawled like never before....
The Jacobite Chronicles is one of the best series I've ever read. It takes alot to make my cry when reading a novel, but The Storm Breaks had me in tears at least half a dozen times to the point where I needed to fix my make up....I think that's called ugly crying and a 10/10 rating! Immediately starting the next book in line. Thank you Julia Brannan for your exceptional writing style!
