Nell

With "characters so realistic that their emotions seem to leap off the pages" (The Literary Times), Jeanette Baker's evocative romances weave past and present into one luminescent tapestry of love that surpasses the bounds of time. Now she holds us spellbound with the story of a woman whose future depends on a betrayal that happened five hundred years before....

Jillian Fitzgerald, whose grand house had sixty rooms, grew up together with Frankie Maguire, the kennel keeper's son, in Northern Ireland. That she was rich and he was poor did not daunt their dreams of someday marrying. But Jillian was headed for a privileged life and the university. Frankie, drawn into the nationalist cause, faced a charge of murder and the dark walls of a jail cell.

With their lives torn apart, there seemed no chance for Jillian and Frankie. But the heart owns knowledge to which the mind is not privy. Generations before, an Irish princess, Eleanor "Nell" Fitzgerald, her family killed, her life in jeopardy, her beloved torn from her arms, was preparing to reach out to another woman who shared her heritage...a woman in another century. Now, from the court of Henry VIII to the violent streets of modern Belfast, Nell and Jillian will become two souls joined in one courageous battle to prove that neither prison bars nor the hands of time can stop the power of love.
