A family history research comes to life story - A dual timeline saga.

*****
Jennifer Kellow's idyllic world on a cheesemaking dairy in Cornwall is turned upside down by a visit to London. She is charged with fraud and then transported to the Antipodes. Her marriage plans are now shelved; life is not supposed to be like this. However, she has a champion who paves the rough path ahead, and it's not her fiancé, Billy.
Billy Williams, a miner and the son of the dairy owner, has waited for her to grow up, but she has been torn from his grasp. He must choose between duty and his love for her. He has a plan so they can be together, but they can make this work. Will she stay strong though they are separated? He says he has plans so they can be together. Will he manage to find her?
She trusts that he will do everything he can to be with her because of his love.
Can they make this work?
Can history be erased by time? Why can't Jenny find details about her great-great-grandmother's background? If they did marry, how come the family name is still Kellow?
