Lady Gallant
Disowned by her father and still mourning the death of her
fiancé, Josephine Posey joins Florence Nightingale’s brigade of nurses bound
for the Black Sea. Thousands of British soldiers desperately await these angels
of mercy and a new life awaits Josie. Amidst the chaos of death and despair,
she finds a spark of hope, lighting the flame once more inside her soul.
In search of the
truth, Garrick Allen, one of Britain’s first war correspondents also journeys
to the Crimean Peninsula. To him the soldiers seem all but abandoned by Queen
and country, and as he smokes his cheroots and makes friends with a bottle, he
writes his bold but honest dispatches for The Times. Not wanting anything more than to finish his
job and go home, Garrick is blind-sided by a nurse with attitude who offers him
a new slant on life and a reason to love.
Long and Short Reviews, by Poinsettia
I truly enjoyed getting to know Josie as a character. Her devotion to her soldiers and all human beings is admirable. She manages to thrive in an environment that has defeated many others. Garrick is the perfect hero for Josie. He is the classic tough guy with a soft heart. I loved watching his tough exterior slowly melt away to reveal the caring man underneath.

Victorian Dream
1851 England & America.
Emotionally
scarred by the death of his wife, Yankee sea captain Walker Garrison bans
romance from his personal manifest, shipbuilding is his only passion. The
transatlantic partnership between Walker and Trelayne's father seems a grand
idea until her parents are critically injured and one of Walker's crew turns up
dead. On the trail of the man responsible, Walker sets sail for England. But, after
meeting his new partner's daughter, protecting Trelayne and not falling in love
with her may prove impossible.
