Under the Emerald Sky: A tale of love and betrayal in 19th century Ireland (The Irish Fortune Series Book 1)
“Under the Emerald Sky reaches another level in storytelling, the kind where the characters remain with you long after you have closed the book.” – The Historical Fiction Company

It’s 1843 and the Englishman Quinton Williams has come to Ireland to oversee the running of his father’s ailing estate and escape his painful past. There he meets the Irishwoman Alannah O’Neill, whose family is one of few to have retained ownership of their land, the rest having been supplanted by the English over the course of the country’s bloody history. Seeing the injustices of Victorian Ireland, Alannah’s brother Kieran has learned to hate the English and imperialism. Aware of Kieran’s hostility towards the English, Alannah keeps her growing relationship with Quin a secret – but it’s a secret that can’t be kept for long from those plotting to end England’s oppression of the Irish people. In the face of hate and revenge, an action-packed romance ensues.

But all the while, Ireland is deeply troubled, steeped in the stark contrasts that separate the rich few from the plentiful poor – which will prove to have devastating consequences.

Can Quin and Alannah find happiness in a land teetering on the brink of disaster? $0.99 on Kindle.
