Can love rewrite her story?

When Rowena, a young Englishwoman, finds herself torn from a life of privilege and thrust into slavery, her world is upended. Gifted one day to Mr. Sutton -- an Englishman grappling with the immorality of owning another human being -- Rowena takes it as an opportunity to get home.

Christophe plans to rid himself of the woman as soon as he can, but as they travel back to England, Christophe finds his heart more and more entangled with her. It's an affection that threatens to upend his life in English society, but one he can't shake. When she disappears, his heart is in tatters.

Once in London, where society is bound by rigid class and gender expectations, Rowena becomes the noblewoman she always was. But a chance encounter with Christophe pushes her to question if a love outside the rules of society can survive.

From the sun-soaked courtyards of North Africa to the stifling gentility of Victorian society, Stepping Across the Desert is a tale of resilience, romance, and self-discovery set between the windswept sands of 19th-century Algeria and the drawing rooms of Victorian England. Join Rowena as she navigates a perilous new existence, one shaped by shifting power, conflicted loyalties, and buried secrets.

Perfect for readers of Dinah Jefferies, Kate Furnivall, and Gill Paul.
