"Two women connected by the same musical soul are transposed across time into each other’s world by the mysterious forces of a priceless 18th-century cello. A story of music, history, and love that finds a way to conquer the barriers of time.
In the final instalment of the Song for a Lost Kingdom trilogy, Adeena Stuart and Katharine Carnegie search for the music neither can complete on their own.
Finding themselves living three centuries apart and each assuming the identity of the other, Adeena and Katharine must overcome their own unique challenges, all the while hiding the truth of who they really are from those around them.
Adeena is pregnant in Scotland following the slaughter at the Battle of Culloden in April 1746. Her husband James Drummond and his brother John Drummond, are being hunted as Jacobite traitors by the revengeful butchers of King George’s Hanoverian army.
Katharine meanwhile awakes in the year 2019, confused by even the simplest of technologies and overwhelmed by the strange customs of the modern world.
Pregnant from an unknown father, and uncertain about whether true love lies in the past or present, she finds respite in her music and the only thing familiar about this strange place – the Duncan Cello, now a prize artifact of the National Gallery of Canada.
Through it all, Adeena and Katharine find a way to compose a score across time that reflects the turmoil in both their lives – The Heart Beats in Time. And together they will see the story through to the final bars.
Audiobook read by Bethany Mason, Tom McLean, Louisa McLean and Erica Vogt.

"Adeena Stuart is cellist in 2019 who finds herself living the life of another woman in 1746 Scotland, fighting to save a doomed man – the father of the woman's unborn child. Adeena is an alluring musician driven to compose and perform.
But it’s not until she somehow becomes Katharine, an 18th-century cellist and composer herself, that the music inside both women finds its timeless perfection.
Their composition, Song for a Lost Kingdom, transfigures the heart of James Drummond, who history records as dying shortly after the Battle of Culloden. His death starts a tragic chain of events that will haunt Katharine’s family for generations.
And Adeena’s family as well.
In ‘Love Never Surrenders,’ Book II of the Song for a Lost Kingdom trilogy, Adeena lies in a deep coma in 2019, fighting the expanding growth in her brain. But as Katharine, living in 1746 she races against time to change the course of history and save James from the inevitable death that awaits him as he follows Bonnie Prince Charles in the final tragic showdown at Culloden.
This unique twist on time travel will stay with you long after you read the final chapter.

"A time-slip fantasy-adventure powered by music that refuses to be bound by time – and an impossible love that defies the tragic fate already determined by history.
Crushed with the rejection of joining a world-renowned orchestra, a modern-day cellist finds new hope in an unexpected summons to Scotland. Adeena’s dying grandmother has a gift for her; a lost music score that Adeena performs on the oldest surviving cello ever made in the United Kingdom.
As she plays… time transforms.
A connection is made through the music to Katharine, another young cellist and composer in Scotland, though the year is 1745.
Their connection is cemented by the love of the same man doomed to die after the Battle of Culloden in 1746. The magic of a priceless cello connects two souls that share the same heart in all that truly matters to them – love and the maddening drive to compose and to perform.
