In 1899, Kicker Stuart leaves her village to work as hostler and farrier at Grindleshire Academy for Young Ladies. There she meets teacher Madelyn Bristow, and a forbidden romance sparks.

Their journey across the Atlantic leads them to Western Canada, a new frontier where hope and opportunity await. Along the way they wrestle with expectations of gender, class, and each other, forging a partnership that endures beyond the constraints of their origins. Together they find not a perfect Eden, but a place to live and love on their own terms.

*1927, colonial Singapore*
Monsters don’t scare Gean Choo. And there are monsters aplenty among the Europeans on sultry Singapore island, all of them running away from something—or someone.
When she starts her new job as a lady’s companion, she can’t imagine falling for the impassioned, demanding mistress of Ambrosia Hall, nor the gruff, brooding woman who serves as her lady’s majordomo.
The latter holds her heart; the former, her body, blood, and loyalty.
Both want her.
Both *need* her.
**And one of them will die for her.**
