She was invisible to those who should have loved her. After the
Great War, Abby Fraser returns to India, where her husband is
stationed with the British army. She has longed to go home to the
land of glittering palaces and veiled women . . . but Nick has
become a cruel stranger and a cruel father to their three-year old
son. It will take more than her American pluck to survive. Major
Geoff Richards, broken over the loss of so many of his men in the
trenches of France, returns to his cavalry post in Amritsar. His
faith does little to help him understand the ruthlessness of his
British peers toward the Indian people he loves. Nor does it
explain how he is to protect Abby Fraser and her child from the
husband who mistreats them. Amid political unrest, inhospitable
deserts, and Russian spies, tensions rise in India as the people
cry for the freedom espoused by Gandhi. Caught between their own
ideals and duty, Geoff and Abby stumble into sinister secrets . . .
secrets that will thrust them out of the shadows and straight into
the fire of revolution.
Seattle Debutant Sofi Andersson will do everything in her power to
protect her sister who is suffering from shock over their father's
death. Charles the family busy-body threatens to lock Trina in a
sanatorium--a whitewashed term for an insane asylum-- so, Sofi will
rescue her little sister, even if it means running away to the
Cascade Mountains with only the new gardener Neil Macpherson to
protect them. But in a cabin high in the Cascades, Sofi begins to
recognize that the handsome immigrant from Ireland harbors secrets
of his own. Can she trust this man whose gentle manner brings such
peace to her traumatized sister and such tumult to her own
emotions? And can Neil-the-gardener continue to hide from Sofi that
he is really Dr. Neil Galloway, a man wanted for murder by the
British police? Only an act of faith and love will bridge the
distance that separates lies from truth and safety.
Prisoners to their own broken dreams... After a daring rescue goes
awry, Laine Harkness and her friend Eshana flee to the tropical
south of India...and headlong into their respective pasts. Laine
takes a nursing position at a plantation in the jungle, only to
discover that her former fiance is the owner...but fun-loving Laine
refuses to let Adam crush her heart like he had years ago. Eshana,
captured by her traditional uncle and forced once more into the
harsh Hindu customs of mourning, doubts freedom will ever be hers
again, much less the forbidden love that had begun to flower. Amid
cyclones, epidemics, and clashing faiths, will the love of the True
Master give hope to these searching hearts?
