Romance Historical


Set in 1706 during Queen Anne Stuart's reign Far Beyond Rubies erupts when William, Baron Kemp, Juliana's half–brother claims she and her sister are bastards. Juliana is determined to prove the allegation is false and that she is the rightful heiress to Riverside, a great estate.

On his way to deliver a letter to William, Gervaise sees Juliana for the first time in the grounds of her family home...The sight of her drew him back to India. Her form changed to one he knew intimately — but not in this birth.

An unexpected event brings Juliana and quixotic Gervaise together and circumstances force Juliana to accept his kind help. However, when Juliana's life irrevocably tangled with Gervaise's she discovers he is not all that he seems.

Re: Far Beyond Rubies

Thanks for sharing your interesting story! It must have been very disheartening to get novels accepted but never published. Well done for keeping going.
I've been through Kent on the Eurostar train but otherwise know it from Robert Holdstock's fantasy works and The Darling Buds of May, also a book called Wild Hops about Londoners who would go hop-picking to Kent each year. It sounds like a beautiful part of the world. Recently I researched the Isle of Sheppey as well, a very interesting place.

I found your posting not only informative, but very interesting, for lack of a better word. I enjoyed reading about your childhood, as well as snippets about your life. I have to say that you've sure had your share of adventure!! It's also nice AND gratifying to know that you're another Author who goes through the trouble and heartbreak of getting your facts when writing your books. Thank you for that, and I'll be looking forward to reading your book. I love books from that period, and knowing you're keeping parts of History alive is comforting.

Hi Rosemary -

I'm so glad that I stopped by Fresh Fiction today and had the chance to find out more about you and your books.

I fell in love with historical romance in the 1960's when I was in High School and our teacher had us read Don Quixote by Cervantes. I already loved history but after reading it I fell in loving with historical romance. Fortunately my husband loves reading history and historical fiction and he's always amazed with the facts I've learned about ethics, the political climate and the structure of the government of England and Scotland from the books I've read.

I had visited Amazon before stopping in today and ironically just found out that you had released Far Beyond Rubies in March but but was wondering if I would get more out of it if I read Tangled Love, Sunday's Child and False Pretences first?
