Banishment
Dinah Lampitt
Shocked to discover she has an attractive Parliamentarian lover and a new-born child, and is in the camp of the losing Royalists, Nichola's main objective is to get back to her own time. Yet she can hardly explain what has happened without risking being accused of witchcraft. And anyway, there is a more immediate problem to confront: the lecherous attentions of Sir Denzil.
Rescued by one of the King's noblemen, the dashing Lord Joscelin Attwood, Nichola suddenly realises she is rather enjoying playing the part of Arabella. Then slowly, insidiously, she finds that the part is becoming more real than her own identity. And it dawns on her that she is no longer acting. The old heartless Nichola Hall has actually fallen in love. And she is ready to face the dangerous wiles of her step-daughter, to deny herself the delights of Prince Rupert and to brave the bloody fighting for the sake of a loved one who has brought her back across the centuries.
Romantic, raunchy and intriguing, Banishment is a compelling story set against the evocative, wonderfully crafted backdrop of the English Civil War.
