The Sunstone Brooch

This story contains violence, sexually explicit scenes, and adult language and may be considered offensive to some listeners.

From the Badlands to the Bluegrass, this perilous, potentially deadly adventure changes the lives of everyone involved and puts at risk the survival of the Clan and all the Celtic brooches. While dressing for a dinner date with her cousin George Williams and James Cullen Fraser, Ensley Williams picks through her jewelry box for some bling to add to her outfit and chooses her late mother’s sunstone brooch. Engraved on the inside of the stone is an inscription. When she recites the Celtic words, she’s engulfed in a peat-scented fog and transported back to the Dakota Badlands in 1885 where she meets Teddy Roosevelt at his Elkhorn Ranch.

When James Cullen discovers Ensley has disappeared, he decides not to tell his family that he’s going back to rescue her, which is the worst decision he’s ever made. After finding TR at his ranch, Ensley’s not in a hurry to return to the future. She grew up on a North Dakota ranch near the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and this is a dream come true. She wants to go on a roundup with TR, while JC wants to go to MacKlenna Farm and “borrow” some gold from Braham McCabe’s secret cache.

JC makes the second-worst decision of his life and leaves Ensley in Roosevelt’s hands. While Ensley struggles with bad weather, bad food, stampedes, and wild animals, JC goes up against an evil force that plunges him into a crucible of terror and agony that could bring down the entire MacKlenna Clan.
