  Has love found him everlastingly too late? 
  "Judith Hale Everett is one of the most original authors in the Regency genre." —Mary Kingswood (author of the Silver Linings series) 
  As childhood playmates, Geoffrey Mantell and Emily Chandry forge a lifelong bond building a secret world where they can escape their unloving families. Then Geoffrey is sent away to school and goes into the army, and does not see Emily again until they are both grown. The disparity in their situations is then patently clear, and Captain Mantell cannot think of Miss Chandry as anything but a dear friend. He is called back to his regiment with few regrets. 
  Only after the horrors of Waterloo does Geoffrey comprehend all that Emily means to him, and he vows to confess his love at his earliest opportunity. But by the time he is healed enough to write to her, she does not answer. Has his realization come too late, or has something dreadful occurred? Geoffrey cannot rest until he discovers what has become of Emily, for his greatest battle will be for a second chance at love.

  The eighth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
  The new governor leads the colony with great efficiency, yet, life is still hard and burdensome. Once again, an attempt must be made to conquer the Blue Mountains — because beyond the large mountains, it is said that there are fertile plains and plentiful pastures.
  This had been Jenny's life-long dream, and now, her son Justin was on his way there. Was the dream finally about to come true?
  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.
