.. Liz went close to the wall. She could only hear muffled voices and moaning coming from the Major's room. "Ah, don't bite so hard. It pains" It was the Aya's voice. Liz was surprised. Didn't she say she was 40 now? That makes her quite older for the Major, Liz thought. " Now will you just turn over," it was the Major's voice. "No, not that again." Soon Liz could hear the Ayah's shriek. She seemed to be pleading, "Don't go so deep. Ah, ah ah" which ended with a high decibel piercing cry. Liz could not figure out whether it was a cry of pain or pleasure. Major Smith, too, was making a sound like a panting wild animal.

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment - tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena's gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena's world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans - pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena's journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances - a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Mapmaker's Daughter is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world - they define it - and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.

And at its center stood William Johnson Crawford, a New Hampshire man who would change her life forever. ... Newgate Prison Copper Mines and the The Irish Lass - A 1700s Colonial America Sweet Romance Novella is a historical series set around the real-life copper mines in Simbsbury, Connecticut. In the late 1700s these mines had been run dry. They were then converted into the infamous Newgate Prison, one of the first federal attempts in the new United States to hold and incarcerate dangerous men. These mines were notorious in their own time, spawning delightfully adjective-rich newspaper write-ups as well as terror amongst the Tories who were threatened with a stay. The history and many characters are as authentic as I can make them. William Johnson Crawford is a documented person from this timeframe. You can read these novellas one at a time as I write them, or you can wait until I finish the boxed set and present the complete story. Some readers prefer to read as I go, while others like to wait. It's wholly up to you which you prefer! Contact me with any questions - I'd love to hear your feedback and ideas! And definitely make plans to visit Newgate when you can. It is an absolutely amazing experience, to descend into those historic copper mines and to feel what it was like.

"If I may be so bold as to ask" he went on, and I allowed it "Sometimes you wish you could just cut someone's throat don't you?" The question threw me off balance. My mind wondered why, out of all the questions he might've asked he asked that one. As if murderous tendencies might connect us. "I guess you could say so" I replied, not daring reveal more. He smiled, and pleased by my answer said "Everybody feels it. We all want to let Rage rule" "Is that so?" I replied "Well of course, my dear" "Well you surprise me, sir," I added, my amusement starting to bob up "You don't strike me as the type of gentleman who'd want to wander through life with murderous desires in his heart." With that cocky smirk he said "Nor you as the type of lady who would admit homicidal tendencies" I wondered how appropriate this conversation would be deemed by the pompous colonial society. I arched my auburn brow and offered him a friendly expression in return. "There are many things I don't strike people as. Many things you don't know about me, sir" "Do tell, What is your name?" It lit up my face in a satisfactory manner. "Rage" I snapped. "Rage Weatherby" *cover by: mypersonaladiction*
