This book was extremely good!!! I finished it last night, I really really enjoyed it.
With the flash of the British red coats, Kelsey McBride is suddenly torn from her beloved green hills of Kildare when her mother is arrested and convicted as a dissident in the Irish Rebellion. They promptly find themselves sentenced to be transported to the Australian penal colony of Sydney Cove. Kelsey's determination to return to Ireland takes an unexpected turn when young Caleb Prentice and his family extend to her the love and care she has never known.
Rachel Langley returns to the Land Down Under from England and is surprised to discover that the Reverend Heath Whitley has patiently waited for her and is asking for her hand in marriage. She also quickly discovers that Sydney Cove is caught in the throes of the smoldering unrest of the Irish convicts.
When violence strikes the Prentice family at Rose Hill, and rebellion stirs the convicts to revolt in the Battle of Castle Hill, no one can escape the dreadful consequences. Will all that they have finally gained be lost in the hostile blaze?
