A Pennyworth of Sunshine

Keara Michaels is sent from Ireland to Lancashire, and then on to Australia, arriving pregnant and without money. Theo Mullane loves her, but he is married and has an ailing baby son.

Mark Gibson leaves Lancashire to avoid marriage and later turns to gold prospecting. After his young wife dies in childbirth and their baby is kidnapped by her father, Mark flees to Western Australia and employs Keara at his country inn, as she searches for her lost sisters.

Twopenny Rainbows

In 1863, Irish orphans Ismay and Mara are sent to Australia against their will and separated on arrival. Ismay is forced into work as a maid in the country, while Mara remains with a Catholic mission.

Both girls run away in an attempt to reunite, but Ismay faces danger in the bush and is saved by Malachi Firth, who is attracted to her but does not want a wife. Their elder sister Keara searches for them from Melbourne as danger continues to threaten all three.

Threepenny Dreams

Recently widowed, Hannah Firth is still young enough to imagine a different life. When her daughter-in-law uses her as an unpaid servant, Hannah tries to leave, unaware of how far Patty’s malice will go.

Nathaniel King’s life is thrown into turmoil when his landlord’s son destroys his market garden as a prank, and the resulting feud puts his livelihood at risk.
