Now Is the Hour
In New Zealand, she found wild beauty, savage splendor, and her heart's hidden desire. Three powerful men...One would betray her, one would sustain her, one would fulfill the tender promise of love...

She came from the dark poverty of London's East End, bound as an indentured servant, dreaming of a gloden new world. Swept off her feet by a dashing British aristocrat, beautiful Carolyn Wickam would make a brillant match, only to have her hopes shattered by scandal and shame.

Carried on winds of chance across New Zealand's harsh frontiers, plunged into a lawless world of settlers and savages, she faced the bitterness of betrayal and loss, the challenge of hardship. Yet she would endure - bound to the three men who claimed her heart - to a dream, and to the untamed land that had become her home.
