The Lovages of Cassio
Volume One
Yvonne, Lady of Cassio. The
A Historical Novel set in the reign of Edward II
When Yvonne and Elizabeth,
daughters of ruthless Simon Lovage, Earl of Cassio, are born under the same
star to different mothers, no one could have foretold their lives would be
irrevocably entangled.
Against the background of
Edward II’s turbulent reign in the fourteenth century, Yvonne, Lady of Cassio,
contains imaginary and historical characters.
It is said the past is a
foreign country in which things were done differently. Nevertheless, although
that is true of attitudes, such as those towards women and children, our
ancestors were also prompted by ambition, anger, greed, jealousy, humanity,
duty, loyalty, unselfishness and love.
From early childhood, despite
those who love her and want to protect her, Yvonne is forced to face difficult
economic, personal and political circumstances, during a long, often bitter
struggle.
Far Beyond Rubies
A Romantic Historical Novel set in Queen Anne
Stuart’s reign 1702-1714
Set
in 1706 during Queen Anne Stuart’s reign, Far Beyond Rubies begins when
William, Baron Kemp, Juliana’s half-brother claims she and her young sister,
Henrietta, are bastards. Spirited Juliana is determined to prove the allegation
is false, and that she is the rightful heiress to Riverside, a great estate.
On
his way to deliver a letter to William, Gervaise Seymour sees Juliana for the
first time on the grounds of her family estate. The sight of her draws him back
to India. When “her form changed to one he knew intimately – but not in this
lifetime,” Gervaise knows he would do everything in his power to protect her.
Although
Juliana and Gervaise are attracted to each other, they have not been formally
introduced and assume they will never meet again. However, when Juliana flees
from home, and is on her way to London, she encounters quixotic Gervaise at an
inn. Circumstances force Juliana to accept his kind help. After Juliana’s life
becomes irrevocably tangled with his, she discovers all is not as it seems.
Yet, she cannot believe ill of him for, despite his exotic background, he
behaves with scrupulous propriety while trying to help her find evidence to
prove she and her sister are legitimate.
Tuesday’s Child, Heroines Born on Different Days of the Week. Book
2
A Romantic Historical Novel set in the Regency Era.
Harriet Stanton followed
the drum until the deaths of her husband and father, army officers in the war
against Napoleon Bonaparte. Destitute, on the verge of starvation, she returns
to England, with her three-year-old son, Arthur. Although she has never met her
father-in-law, the Earl of Pennington, with whom her late husband had cut all
ties, for Arthur’s sake, Harriet decides to ask Pennington for help. Turned
away from his London house by servants, she is rescued by Georgianne Tarrant,
who founded an institution to help soldiers’ widows and orphans.
Desperate for an heir,
the earl welcomes Harriet, and Arthur, whose every wish he grants.
At first, Harriet is
grateful to her father-in-law, but, as time goes she is locked in a silent
battle to control Arthur, who has tantrums if he is denied anything.
After Pennington refuses
his permission for Arthur to swim in the lake, Arthur defies him. About to
drown, he is rescued by charismatic Dominic, Reverend Markham, the Earl and
Countess Faucon’s son.
At the lakeside, Dominic
meets Harriet. She is so dainty that his immediate impression is of a fairy.
Despite her appearance, he is mistaken. Harriet is not a pampered lady by
birth. During brutal campaigns, she milked goats and cooked over camp fires.
