Klappentext
Determined to rise above her station as a maid, can a rugged stranger reawaken Ann's broken heart? Can Hector cast off his past life, wrecked on rocky shores, to unlock the lost treasure of love buried deep in his heart?
This carefully researched true story unfolds amid 19th-century famines, mass migration, and land clearances. Ann's family escaped the bitter winter and set out again as pioneers for distant shores, hoping for a better life. Will an unexpected encounter change the course of her life?
Hector must choose between staying entangled in the successful shipyard business with his family or launching into uncertainty and following his dream. Can he take the helm with renewed vigour and stubborn hope and leave the beloved land embedded in his blood? Escaping centuries of conflict, will he be trapped on far antipodean shores amidst the upheaval of colonial wars? Having left one life behind, is it possible for him to laugh again?
