Maddie and the
Norseman
Blurb:
Madeline (Maddie to her friends), an Australian history teacher, travels
to York, England, to visit her friend Amber who is working there with a team of
archaeologists unearthing Viking relics. They share a passion for the Viking
Age, and both studied the Old Norse language.
About to take part in a re-enactment
at the Viking village and wearing typical clothes worn by a Viking woman, they
are swept back in time to the town of Jorvik, a thriving trading town,
as York was in the year 879 AD. Maddie meets Norse trader Erik and is stunned
by his uncanny resemblance to the Viking she has been dreaming of.
When Amber is kidnapped, Maddie
persuades Erik to help her find her friend. Their journey takes them across to
France and to Rouen, then further inland. They encounter misadventures on their
perilous journey. Erik risks everything to aid Madeline in her quest. And the
fear is always there; will she stay in the past to share her hero’s life, or be
snatched back to her own time?

Mystic Mountains
Settlers Book 1
Blurb:
In the early 1800s the penal colony of Botany Bay was an unforgiving and
harsh place. Isabella O'Shea is transported to New South Wales for wounding a
member of the British aristocracy who raped her, so it is understandable that
she loathes members of the upper class and the system that punished her;
sentenced her to seven years transportation.
Tiger Carstairs
is rich, ambitious and English-so is it any wonder she is determined to hate
her new master. Tiger dreams of making a new life beyond the aptly named Blue
Mountains, so called because of the perpetual haze of blue surrounding them.
Mystic Mountains is a story of courage and persistence-traits that were
essential for the settlers who carved out a new life in a raw land where
suffering and heartbreak were commonplace.
Isabella and Tiger face tragedy and many hardships in their quest for a
new life in this untamed land.
