INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS: In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy. Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East. For the first time in the long history of the Chisholms of Logan, headship of the family was to pass out of the direct line, and the proud Logan title belong to a young man who had been born and had lived all his life in Australia. Johnny Chisholm, last of the Logans, was a boundary rider on an Australian sheep station until he returned to the Highland home of his ancestors. It was, perhaps, to be expected that he found no welcome awaiting him when he came to claim his inheritance. There were, however, two women waiting for him: Elizabeth Anson, who had once refused to marry him, and his cousin Fiona, who from the start had bitterly resented his coming. Would either of them change her attitude?
