From Literary Times
After dancing with, and somehow insulting Lady Catherine MacClelland, Nicholas, duke of Effington goes to her home to apologize. Instead he winds up drinking whiskey and helping her father, Iain, deliver a foal. After expressing a keen interest in his father's ring, Iain informs Nicholas that he will marry Catherine. Rather put out by the old mans demand, he refuses - until he reads a letter that Iain sent to his mother. The MacClellands return to Scotland and before he dies, Iain arranges for Catherine's marriage, hoping that she and Nicholas will fall in love and thereby break the curse of the grimalkin. Catherine is horrified by Iain's traitorous action for she fears that Nicholas will discover her beastly secret if they marry. Yet Nicholas, unsure if Catherine and her father were in cahoots, marries her immediately to assure that his secret stays safe. Nicholas learns firsthand that the grimalkin legend is actually true, and it pleases Catherine that he is protective of the beast. But will they fall in love and be free of the curse? Every time they seem to get closer, someone or something thwarts their progress. Ultimately it is the legend itself that holds the final key to their happiness and freedom. But can Nicholas decipher it and convince Catherine to agree to its terms? My initial reaction to the beastly connection in this book was, 'oh, come on, gimme a break!' I must admit, however, that I enjoyed this romance! A beastly but romantic new novel by Tracy Fobes! You won't want to miss Touch Not The Cat - its splendid! Gifted and imaginative! Tracy Fobes is a wonderful storyteller! Good story, good writing, good reading! Gloria Miller -- Copyright © 090198 Literary Times, Inc. All rights reserved

Book Description
Spellbinding new author Tracy Fobes combines dark enchantment with dazzling sensuality in a thrilling debut romance with a shocking twist. Out of the swirling mists of the Scottish Highlands, she has crafted a haunting tale of a love so powerful it dares to defy an ancient curse....
The wild Highland lass whose outdated dress and clan tartan incites gossip and speculation among London society carries an astonishing secret. Catherine McClelland knows that the curse plaguing her family must set her eternally apart from the world. She dares not marry, for if any man were to learn the truth of what she's so carefully hidden, the cost could be her life. Yet she has little choice when her father suddenly blackmails Nicholas, duke of Efington, into marriage with her in a desperate attempt to break the curse.
Against the backdrop of the moonlit moors, Nicholas and Catherine are drawn to each other with a fervent desire. And yet Nicholas senses a mystery lurking beneath her green-eyed beauty that could tear them apart. As he comes closer to understanding the curse, menacing forces and stubborn beliefs threaten both their lives. Haunted by an inexorable legend, they feel its darkness closing in like a cold Highland mist, a darkness only their love can banish forever....
