The final part of the Blake sisters saga set in Lancashire and Western Australia in the 1860s, following on from FAREWELL TO LANCASHIRE AND BEYOND THE SUNSET.

Three Blake sisters remain in the Swan River Colony in 1866 and two are quite happy to forge new lives for themselves there.

The third, Xanthe, yearns to see the world. But even if she could afford to travel, could she persuade her beloved twin to let her go Maia has fallen in love with their employer, and would surely be happiest staying behind with him.

Xanthe's opportunity comes in the form of a handsome Irishman bringing some of the sisters' inheritance from England. But for Maia, the same man brings trouble in his wake - someone who has the power to make her life a misery.

Both sisters' reserves of courage and endurance will be tested before they can finally find a home to call their own.

Anna Jacobs

Anna Jacobs grew up in Lancashire and emigrated to Australia, but still visits the UK regularly to see her family and do research, something she loves. She is addicted to writing and figures she'll have to live to be 120 at least to tell all the stories that keep popping up in her imagination and nagging her to write them down. She's also addicted to her own hero, to whom she's been happily married for many years.

She is the bestselling author of over ninety novels and has been shortlisted for several awards, and Pride of Lancashire won the Australian Romantic Book of the Year Award in 2006.
