The Wreck of the Sidonie Stone
In 1936 the world was in turmoil; depression swept over the land stealing jobs and hope, and from Europe came rumblings of another war. Women had few choices: they could teach, nurse or marry, and none of these options brought a guarantee of a better life. Chances for success and for happiness were still in the iron grip of men…
Sydney Stone lost everything when her father's fishing boat sank just outside Hickman's Harbour, Newfoundland during an early storm. She lost her livelihood, her new husband and her only hope at love and family. Rescued by the one person in town less liked than herself, she entered into what she believed was to be a marriage of convenience; he had a boat and she had the experience to run a successful fishing fleet. Unfortunately, there was nothing about that marriage that proved convenient for either of them.

The Dutch Doctor
1960, Indonesia. The tropical paradise has suffered years of war, martial law and political upheaval which is soon to turn into economic depression and dictatorship. Nursing student Heidi West is so determined not to be offered up on a marital auction block by her mother that she accepts a post that no other student has been willing to take: a post as a surgeon's assistant off the coast of Java. The heat, the monsoons, the unrest and the isolation don't intimidate half as much as the man with whom she must live and work: The Dutch Doctor.
