Book Description
Both haunted and driven to discover a 100 year old secret, storyteller Jill Martin, leads the reader on a journey to one of the loneliest places in North America: Sable Island. Sculpted by wind and waves, this thin slice of grass-covered dunes for centuries has lured hundreds of ships to founder on its treacherous sand bars. Only the foolhardy or nave dared to underestimate the dangers of the Graveyard of the Atlantic. It is to this notorious outpost a hundred miles from mainland Nova Scotia that newly appointed Superintendent of Lifesaving, RJ Bouteillier, brings his young family in 1884. In this harsh, isolated and mysterious environment far from city life, young Beatrice, a woman who challenges the prescribed roles of her sex, crosses the threshold from childhood to adulthood. Entries in the visitors book penned by long dead authors come to life in this engaging treasure hunt of passion and betrayal. Their stories unlock the portal to that distant past and chronicle the everyday lives of the residents of Sable Island. Coaxed ever deeper into the islands labyrinth, the reader discovers that Sable reveals her secrets on her own terms and in her own time.

Book Description
Sebastian will need every drop of his acting talent to survive with both his head and his heart intact. When Sebastian Hewel's twin sister, Bronwyn, reneges on the arrangement to marry Anthony Redbourn, Earl of Crofton, Sebastian has no choice but to takes her place. He might feel like he's in one of Master Shakespeare's plays, but with his performance as Lady Crofton, he hopes to pay off his late father's debts and save his family's honour. Sebastian didn't expect Anthony to be so attractive and alluring-not to mention shrewd. Anthony is not the type of man to care if his lovers wear a gown or a doublet, and he is charmed by Sebastian, offering a mutually beneficial arrangement. Fool Anthony's fellow nobles and the court in an extravagant wedding, then retire to Crofton Hall to play Anthony's beloved wife for a year or two, after which the young, but sickly, Lady Crofton will succumb to a fever, and Sebastian can return to his normal life. This is the third edition of The Actor and the Earl, and it has been re-edited for release,
