A heartrending saga in the tradition of Belva Plain and Lewis Orde -- Exciled to America -- Lovely Sheila Cagney was torn from her family and forced to flee her belived Ireland when her fiance was sentenced to death for treason. Alone in an alien land, destitute and heartbroken, Sheila made her way to the slums of Whiskey Island-only a few blocks from Cleveland's fabled Millionaire's Row, a broad avenue of elegance where the wealthiest families in America lived. Sheila first entered the grand mansions of the fabulously rich by the servants' entrance, but she vowed that one day she would make their world her own. Even as her hands grew rough from laundering her haughty employer's fine linens, Sheila found time to watch ... to listen...to learn. And learn she did. Men admired her, pursued her, ached to claim her, but for Sheila there could be only one true love-only one dream.

And she was willing to spend a lifetime making it come true.

Sent In Chains To Tasmania

When Kevin O'Connell learned that he had escaped the British hangman's noose only to be sent halfway around the world to toil as a slave on an uncivilized island off the coast of Australia, he felt no relief- only pain. What was life worth without his Sheila? But the bonds of his love for her were stronger than his chains. Kevin labored eighteen hours a day in the hops fields, all the while saving...plotting...planning- waiting. No matter how many years it took, despite the insurmountable obstacles in his path, someday he would find his path, someday he would find his lovely Sheila and hold her in his arms once more.
