Though she dreamed of castles and princes, Dierdre Bryant kept both feet firmly planted on the ground as she left the family farm in Ohio for college.  She’d earned her success in Washington, DC, so why did her employer “sell” her to a Scottish viscount without her permission? 

Could she take Donald MacBaine’s company out of the dark ages without losing what she’d worked so hard to attain?  Could she resist the pull of castles and tales of ghosts and love or would she be caught in the tug-of-war between twin brothers who are as different as “chalk and cheese”?

Tomorrow Came Early

The War Between the States changed a young Southern gentleman’s life forever.  He lost his love, he gave up his home, and he changed his name.  Though his family searched for him with little success, the unknown family past of Andrew Hamilton caught up with Hamilton Anderson just when he’d started to live and love again.

Can family secrets rip wounds in the sons as they did in the fathers?  Can a second generation make peace with the twisted sins of the first, or did the sins of the father perpetuate and even escalate in the son?  If the Hamiltons thought it was already Too Late for Tomorrow, what would they do if Tomorrow Came Early?
