  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.

  Three women from very different backgrounds, bound by friendship, separated by destiny 
    
  It was impossible, but in full view of the church, the Governor and wedding guests ... 
  The bride had vanished. 
  Some girls are born to be loved, some are born to be useful. 
  Some girls are born to be bad. 
  Indulged and wealthy Kat Fitzhubert is seemingly 'sold off' in an arranged marriage in a colony across the world. Lady Viola Montefiore is the dark-skinned 'changeling' of a ducal family, kept hidden and then shipped away. Titania Boot is as broad as a carthorse, and as useful. 
  In the turmoil of an Australia in 1853 that reinvents itself from convict colony to a land of gold, one woman forges a business empire. One brews illegal poteen with a bushranger. And the third vanishes on her wedding day in a scandal that will mystify the world. 
  In this magnificent and broad-sweeping saga, Jackie French defies the myth of colonial women as 'merely' wives, servants or whores. Instead portraying them as business women, farmers, bushrangers and brewers of illegal poteen, as well as arbiters of their destiny.
