#SixSentenceSunday: Sea of Green Unfolding Ch 3

A Sea of Green Unfolding, Book Three in The Long Trails series of Historical Fiction by equine vet turned author Lizzi Tremayne is my #SixSentenceSunday for the week.

The biggest difference between their two weddings was that in this second one, Aleksandra was led up the aisle by an aging relative of Xavier’s. Otherwise, this ceremony, too, went by in a blur.

Her Xavier waited at the altar beside Jose. His glowing eyes drew her, heart in her throat and hands cold as ice, as she floated across the miles of people thronging the chapel. Her taffeta and silk whispered with every step, amidst murmurs of appreciation, as she slipped past row after row of strangers.

Sea of Green

About A Sea of Green Unfolding:

When you’ve lost everything, the only way to go is up…

Tragedy strikes in Aleksandra and Xavier’s newly-found paradise on their Californio Rancho de las Pulgas and newspaperman Gustavus von Tempsky invites them on a journey to a new life in New Zealand—where everyone lives together in peace.

Unfortunately, change is in the wind.

When they reach Aotearoa, they disembark into a turbulent wilderness—where the wars between the European settlers and the local Māori have only just begun—and von Tempsky is leading the colonial troops into the bush.
