  The fifth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
   
  In the British colony of Australia, the obstacles are challenging and never-ending. The new governor, Bligh — better known for his command on the Bounty and the mutiny against him — has already gained a relentless enemy: The New South Wales Corps, also known as The Rum Corps due to their profitable side business. Governor Bligh's other enemies are the Irish rebels — who wish to end his life!
  And what will be the fate of Jenny Taggart-Broome now? 
  The hardships of life in the colony, as always, hit "regular" people the hardest.
   
  Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.

  A stunning novel of the Tudors from the best-selling author of The Agincourt Bride. 
  Jasper Tudor, son of Queen Catherine and her second husband, Owen Tudor, has grown up far from the intrigue of the royal court. But after he and his brother Edmund are summoned to London, their half-brother, King Henry VI, takes a keen interest in their future. 
  Bestowing Earldoms on them both, Henry also gives them the wardship of the young heiress Margaret Beaufort. Although she is still a child, Jasper becomes devoted to her and is devastated when Henry arranges her betrothal to Edmund. 
  He seeks solace in his estates and in the arms of Jane Hywel, a young Welsh woman who offers him something more meaningful than a dynastic marriage. But passion turns to jeopardy for them both as the Wars of the Roses wreak havoc on the realm. Loyal brother to a fragile king and his domineering queen, Marguerite of Anjou, Jasper must draw on all his guile and courage to preserve their throne − and the Tudor destiny… 
  Jasper's life, a blend of historical events and literary fiction, is punctuated by a top romance that provides a semblance of peace in the midst of the Wars of the Roses. The war, however, poses a constant threat to their love and the stability of the realm. 
  For fans of Carol Mcgrath (The Lost Queen), Alison Weir (Elizabeth of York), Elizabeth Chadwick (The Royal Rebel), Annie Garthwaite (Cecily), and Anne R. Bailey (The Lady Ursula).
