From India to Britain, an epic journey of extraordinary women in momentous times.
The new look editions: THE TEA PLANTER’S DAUGHTER and THE TEA PLANTER’S BRIDE are due for release on the 21st June. A third novel in the series, GIRL FROM THE TEA GARDEN, will follow later in the year.
After their success as self-published novels, Lake Union is to bringing them out in several formats: ebooks, paperbacks and audio.
The fertile valleys of India are abundant with beauty, hope – and tea. The passionate and resourceful women of the Belhaven and Robson tea planter families have always dreamt big, even in the momentous early years of the twentieth century. From the majestic mountains of Assam to the industrial streets of northern Britain, they must learn to cope with hidden secrets, forbidden love, betrayal and adversity as they strive to make life better for themselves and their loved ones. But
as they embark on epic adventures across a fast-changing world, will the upheavals of war and the dying days of the British Raj stop their dreams from becoming a reality?

THE FRENCH DO IT IN STYLE!
Beautiful covers from France for the new French editions of two of Janet’s novels
Presses de la Cite has brought out Une Femme Insoumise – A Rebellious Woman – which is their title for A HANDFUL OF STARS.
“A Rebellious Woman,” says Janet, “is a great title and a fair comment on my ambitious, glamorous yet warm-hearted heroine, Clara. The cover also conveys the glamour of the 1930s period in which the novel is set.”
