'A palace of the winds is that part of an Indian royal household where the ladies in purdah live behind marble screens, looking out at the world, but are never allowed to be part of it. So, when Julia Lockwood is despatched in disgrace to India, she discovers that her own life growing up in an austere ladies' academy in Yorkshire has been just as restricted as that of any woman living in purdah. Travelling through India, Julia finds an exotic world where her sensuality is awakened by the kindly, middle-aged man who marries her and for whom she develops a deep affection. However, it is when Major James Fitzalan rides into her life that she comes to understand true passion, and theirs is a long and troubled road of intrigue and danger. Will they find true happiness?'

With her antique business going bankrupt, and Aunt and business partner sending off large cheques to a mysterious bail jumper in America, Brooke Fairbanks thought she had more problems that she could deal with. But she was wrong. After agreeing to do a favour for an old friend, Brooke comes face to face with Steele Hannigan. Nine years earlier he had almost destroyed her when he went off to chase rainbows in the Emerald mines of South America. And now he's back, with money enough to buy all of his dreams. And those dreams include Brooke. Faced with the failing health of her aunt, and a very uncertain future, Brooke realises to her dismay that the only way out is to accept an offer from Steele Hannigan. An offer where the price may just be too high. The Dream Hunter is a moving story of courage, devotion and determination. (Publisher's blurb)
