Description
A Paradise Shattered. A War Without Mercy. A Love Worth Fighting For.
San Francisco Bay and New Zealand, 1863.
The grand wedding fiesta at the legendary Rancho de las Pulgas echoes across California, uniting Aleksandra and Xavier with the most powerful rancheros in a celebration of love and legacy, but their next loss brings them to their knees. Desperate, yet determined to rebuild, they set sail for New Zealand, hoping for a fresh start. But paradise is not what it seems.
Separated by betrayal and danger, Aleksandra must navigate a land on the brink of war, where loyalty is uncertain, and trust is a luxury she can’t afford. With her beloved Mustang by her side, she faces enemies she never saw coming and finds unexpected allies among those fighting for their land. As she races to find Xavier, she is drawn into a conflict that could destroy everything she loves.
Xavier’s journey is no less perilous. Pursued by those who would see him dead, he faces a treacherous path filled with deceit and danger. As he battles to clear his name, every step brings him closer to a truth that could shatter them both.
Caught in the crossfire between Māori warriors defending their homeland and colonial troops determined to conquer, Aleksandra and Xavier must find a way back to each other before the fires of war consume them.
In a land divided by loyalty and ambition, can love find a place to grow? Or will destiny tear them apart?
