About this listen

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.

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!

Bawled like never before....

Giving us an many facts of this dreadful time in Scotland’s history. A must read or listen especially for those interested in this time in Scotland’s history. Can’t wait for book 5 , though I have read he books several times, I look forward to them been brought even more to life in audiobook

With each new book I fall more in love with the characters. Not just the main characters but the people that are there in the background. This book made me laugh and it also made me cry
