In the shadow of an ancient grove, passion and peril ignite.
An Englishman’s quest for the finest olive oil. A woman bound to the land she loves. A police captain with the power to upend their lives.
When a dispirited Richard Fairfax arrives at the Grand Fortuna Hotel, his search for prized Italian olive oil is quickly eclipsed by the beauty of the Sorrentine countryside – and the captivating women who cross his path.
Sofia Marino, fiercely independent and devoted to a friend’s olive grove, is wary of outsiders. Winning her trust, let alone her famously unyielding heart, will take more than English charm. But Richard isn’t the only one drawn to Sofia’s world. Capitano Isabella Rossi of the Guardia di Finanza, a woman as relentless in her pursuit of justice as she is enigmatic, has her own reasons for keeping a close eye on the grove – and on Richard.
Unbeknownst to Richard, his mission is tangled in something far more treacherous than culinary ambition. A notorious money launderer is operating too close for comfort, and Isabella is determined to bring him down. When Richard finds himself at the mercy of Neapolitan justice, alliances are tested, and loyalties shift.
As danger closes in, the lives of Richard, Sofia, and Isabella intertwine in unexpected ways. With love, trust, and freedom hanging in the balance, will they achieve their hearts’ desires, or will the Guardia’s investigation tear them apart?
Her touch can bring a flower to bloom and sometimes her eyes flash with gilded flames. For as long as she can remember, she believed this power to be a figment of her imagination.
Until they find her.
Ruthless hunters.
Their prey? Her flames.
When they lure her from Earth to an archaic world, everything she thought a lie turns out to be a dangerous truth.
Until a prince—an heir to the very people who see her power as their heritage—offers to help her find a way home. But this quest is a dangerous one, that may demand an unspeakable price.
With her hunters tailing her every move, Naila must decide what sacrifice she’s willing to make to find a way back. Especially since her presence put something long feared into motion… and ancient secrets, dormant for ages, are starting to stir.
Perfect for fans of plot-heavy, character-driven tales with a touch of romance, A Legend in the Sky launches a spellbinding New Adult epic fantasy series inspired by the ancient Middle East.
Another wonderful and humorous instalment in the Guesthouse on the Green series as Mammy and Moira travel Vietnam.
I love the series and can't wait for book four!
A quick but emotional read - reading about the cruelty to the dog was heartbreaking but this was a lovely tale of the love and healing that animals can bring to our lives.
I would have given five stars but for the missed typos - a few t...
I get the impression that this could be a nice story but I've had to give up after forcing myself to go as far as 15% of the way through. If this novel has ever been near a remotely professional editor then the author was conned.

Another very enjoyable story but with a few niggles, hence the four stars rather than five. Maybe it's because I was tired but the editing issues grated on me more than in the first story and, do people really generally believe that 'ear...
