Wedding Bells and Bickering (Book 3)
Forced to work together, love was never part of the plan!
Siobhán O’Hare has planned hundreds of weddings, but none as challenging as this one. When James Fitzpatrick, a grumpy Dublin lawyer, arrives in Dooncarra to oversee his sister’s wedding, their personalities clash like thunder and lightning. She’s creative and spontaneous; he’s by-the-book and unyielding.

A time jump. A fight for survival. A bond between species.

It wasn’t possible, but then it happened…

A Neanderthal’s 47,000-year-old remains are found in Spain. That’s not unusual, but positioned beside the woman’s skeleton is something that shouldn’t be there — a robotic drone. Lincoln Woodhouse has some explaining to do.

When confronted with the evidence, Lincoln cannot deny that the drone is one of his own models. After all, he routinely jumps his drones into the past to collect environmental data. The problem is, this drone shouldn’t even exist in Lincoln’s universe. Everyone knows sending a drone into the past creates an alternate timeline.

The implications of the discovery are staggering, and Lincoln is ordered to jump back in time to investigate, even though no human has ever done so before. Upon jumping, he and his team find themselves in a world of deadly creatures and savage beings.

Amidst the primeval chaos, Lincoln encounters Skyra, a woman unlike anyone he has ever known. She is a skilled hunter and vicious fighter. She is not human, but she just might hold the key to humanity’s future.

In 1806, the Stockman family leaves the Territory of Orleans (soon to become Louisiana) for the wilds of Spanish Texas.

The German-Americans came to settle with the blessings of Spain, only to find themselves embroiled in a bitter conflict between Mexico and Spain for control of Tejas territory.

Joining forces with a dashing young Spanish Royalist deserter, they fight to rid Mexico and Texas from Spanish rule and then find themselves vilified by North Americans pouring illegally into Mexican Texas’s unprotected border.

Targets of prejudice because of their Mexican citizenship, the Stockmans struggle along cultural lines to remain neutral. And then a man they once trusted, Mexican President Santa Ana, forces them to take a stand.

This thirty-year saga leading up to the fall of the Alamo is one family’s struggle to remain in Texas despite constant political upheaval.
