  When survival demands courage, love offers hope. 
   
  New York, 1865. With her brother dead and creditors closing in, Ivy Gallagher faces a stark choice: stay in Five Points and risk everything—or board a train west to marry a man she's never met. 
   
  Colorado Territory. Cormac Burke isn't looking for love. What he needs is a partner—someone willing to share the burden of a remote ranch and the brutal winter ahead. His letter to the matchmaker is plainspoken: no promises beyond respect, shelter, and honest work. 
   
  What begins as a practical arrangement slowly transforms. Amid the snow-capped peaks and harsh beauty of the frontier, Ivy finds not just purpose, but belonging. Yet shadows from her past aren't finished with her. When a violent man comes calling—claiming Ivy as payment for her brother's betrayal—she and Cormac must stand together or risk losing everything. 
   
  In a land where survival depends on trust, can two wounded hearts build a future from the ashes of the past? 
   
  A sweeping tale of resilience, redemption, and the healing power of chosen family—set against the untamed beauty of post-Civil War Colorado.

  Unmarried, childless and sickly, Ellen Hutchins was considered an 'unsuccessful' woman, dutifully bound to her family's once grand and isolated estate, Ballylickey House in County Cork.
  And yet, by the time of her death in 1815, Ireland's first female botanist, self-taught and determined to make her mark, had catalogued over a thousand species of seaweed and plants from her native Bantry Bay.
  In Marianne Lee's remarkable debut novel, Ellen's rich but tormented inner life is reclaimed from the repression by gender, class and politics of her time, stealing glimpses of the happiness and autonomy she could never quite articulate. As she reaches for meaning and expression through her work, the eruption of a long-simmering family feud and the rise of Ellen's own darkness – her 'quiet tide' – threaten to destroy her already fragile future.
  A Quiet Tide is a life examined, a heart-breaking, haunting story that at last captures the essence and humanity of a long forgotten Irishwoman.
