"Beautiful writing, romance and high drama in hard times with strong female lead." William J. Kite
Beacon Hill, Boston. 1832.
"You are innocent. You are loved. You are mine."
After surviving the brutal attack and barely escaping death at Lancaster Castle, Beatrice Mason attempts to build a new life with her husband Joshua across the Atlantic in Beacon Hill. But, as Beatrice struggles to cope with the pregnancy and vivid nightmares, she questions whether she is worthy of redemption.
Determined to put the past behind her after the birth of her daughter Grace, Bea embraces her newfound roles of motherhood and being a wife. Nevertheless, when she meets Sarah Bateman, their friendship draws Bea towards the underground railroad and the abolitionist movement, despite the dangerous secrets it poses.
Whilst concealed in the shadows, Captain Victor Hanley returns, obsessed with revenge and the desire to lay claim to what is his, exposes deceptions and doubts as he threatens their newly established happiness.
Now, Beatrice must find the strength to fight once more and save Grace, even if it costs her life.
Praise for Book 1 in the Ropewalk Series, Ropewalk: Rebellion. Love. Survival:
"There is heartbreak, love, horror and fear, everything that belongs in a book and then some. You need to get your hands on immediately, if not sooner"
Oh look, another book.
"What begins as a simple story of two people falling in love, turns into one of obsession and revenge. There is plenty of drama, even that of a legal kind, lots of characters to love or hate and great historical detail to make this a very satisfying read."
A Darn Good Read.
" The perfect gentleman, the perfect man, Joshua belongs with Bea, but he is upper class and she is not. He is such a wonderful person that I just wanted to push him and Bea together and let them be together while I warded off everyone who was trying to keep them apart!
Beside the obvious romance and longing, there is intense drama, the life-threatening kind that saw me sat on the edge of my seat...."
