Can love
span time?
It is 850AD
and Norse warrior Rolf lands on the shores of East Anglia determined to take
revenge on a Celtic clan. Following a fierce battle, where the Celts are
savagely killed, Rolf comes face to face with the daughter of the slain Celtic
leader. So stunned by the beauty, along with the courage of Brigid, he is
convinced that his Three Fates of Destiny brought them together. Resolved to
make this woman his own, he spares the lives of the captured Celtic women and
children and takes them back to his homeland across the ocean.
Strangely
drawn to the Norseman who is so sure they are destined to be together, Brigid
must fight against succumbing to the wishes of the man who killed her father.
Nevertheless, to save her fellow Celtic captives from slavery or worse, Brigid
must keep a bargain with the Norse leader—a bargain that will see her tied to
him forever.
In present
day Cornwall, naturally shy Rolf shares his secluded lighthouse with his
wolfhound. An artist, he delights in the rugged scenery and ever-changing
weather. While in the nearest bookshop one day, he meets a newcomer to town.
Brigid’s unusual personality strikes a chord with him. Not only are both
convinced they have met before, but their fascination for Viking and Celtic
history forges an unusual bond between them. Outspoken and forthright, Brigid
sets out to break down the barrier of reserve and caution Rolf has erected over
the years. Is it simply whimsy or can lovers across centuries be reunited?
“Powerful - an excellent word to describe this story.” S.

The Lord of
Castlegrove Manor, heir to a vast fortune, is a studious History buff who loves
reading about the years following the Roman occupation of Britain. Dissatisfied
with running his extensive estate, a distraction from Bart’s boredom is his
erotic dreams. No woman but his dream lover will ever offer him the
satisfaction he craves.
During one
of these dreams Bart wakes up miles from his comfortable existence and in the
year 450AD. When he comes face to face with Haesal, he knows instantly this is
the woman who has shared so many of his heated fantasies.
Most Celts
have fled west to escape invaders from over the seas. Haesal and her brother
have been captured by an evil barbarian and Bart comes to realise that his
mission is to rescue them and return them safely to their home in Cornwall.
Haesal’s belief in shapeshifters and the fairy folk helps her better understand
the sudden appearance of this handsome stranger in her life who claims to have
a deep knowledge of her. But can the love they find with each other survive
through time and treachery?
“This is a wonderfully complex tale about a man in another
time. Ms. Mc Gill is at her best describing the settings and making us feel as
if we’re in ancient times…” Jennifer Macaire.
This book
is dedicated to all the women out there who dream of having a man like Jack in
their lives—and to those who are blessed by having one.
When Jack
Delaney re-enters widow Tessa’s life, her world is turned upside down by this
handsome, successful, much younger man.
For too long Tessa has seen herself as
plain and dowdy, just an ordinary suburban housewife. With her confidence
eroded after being married to a bully who humiliated her at every opportunity,
why wouldn’t she presume she was unattractive, and someone no man would find
the least bit worth bothering with?
But now Tessa is a widow, and relishing her
new state of independence. Her world is turned upside down by Jack Delaney, a
man she spent hours fantasizing over when he worked for her husband. A man who
gave her a deliciously secret outlet from her miserable marriage. When Jack
enters her life again, professing he finds her attractive, why would she
believe him? Especially as he is now wealthy, successful, still extremely
handsome, and to add to that, years younger than her.
“This is an unforgettable love story that I didn’t want to
end and when it did, I wanted to start reading it again.” Hattie Boyd
