ABOUT Elizabeth Krall

Elizabeth Krall
I live in Sydney, Australia. After many years as an editor for a number of small publishers, I wrote my first book, 'Ship to Shore', which is a contemporary romance novel. My second novel, 'Too Close', will be available soon.

Description

Storms at sea. Heartbreak on land.

Sally meets Dermid on a tall ship sailing across the Atlantic and is drawn to him, despite what she considers to be his unfortunate passion for bagpipes. Their tentative romance ends badly: she feels guilty and he feels betrayed, and they part in hurt, angry silence.

In spite of what happened on the ship, Sally can’t forget Dermid, although when she takes a job on a Scottish island she claims that the fact he lives on a nearby island has nothing to do with it. Not a thing.

On the Isle of Lewis, city girl Sally runs head-on into small-town Scotland, complete with inquisitive neighbours and more things tartan than she had ever imagined existed.

When her job ends, Sally must choose between building a life with Dermid or returning to her carefree, wandering ways. Someone from Dermid’s past sparks a crisis that sends Sally fleeing back to London – and may tear them apart forever.

And could she ever learn to love the bagpipes?

Set against the tempestuous North Atlantic and the windswept beauty of the Hebrides, ‘Ship to Shore’ is a story of two people who must learn to trust their feelings, and to trust each other.

I'm an enthusiastic tall ship sailor, and have made two crossings of the Atlantic Ocean. Those experiences inspired part one of Ship of Shore, and then I wrote part two to give my hero and heroine a happy ending.
