Historical Paranormal Romances (as Sandy Moffett)
THE MACINNESS TRILOGY- by Sandy and Julie Moffett
Blurbs and excerpts...
In August 1692, an innocent man accused of witchcraft hangs in Salem, Massachusetts. His death reignites a deadly feud between the descendants of two ancient Scottish clans – MacGow and MacInness. Both clans have long had unusual and even mystical powers. The feud escalates until the MacGow descendant casts a black curse that condemns those men who wed a MacInness to an early death. Yet, according to clan tradition, the MacInness have one century to lift the curse. If the curse can be broken within that time, it shall be reflected back upon Clan MacGow. If not, then the curse shall be set on Clan MacInness for an eternity.
Nearly one hundred years later in Salem, three sisters are separated in early childhood. None of them know about the other, and each has a unique unearthly talent – fire, sight and healing. When their natural mother returns to town, the sisters are stunned to discover they are the descendants of the Clan MacInness and have only three months left to refine their special talents and break the deadly curse . . . or lose the men they love forever.

Alexandra Gables needs no man to run her life. Educated, witty and wealthy, she is the only child in a family with a long line of prominent scientists.

When Alexandra is sent to Salem to help the elder Williams catalogue and sketch a scientific collection for the Royal Society of London, she has no idea that she is being dangled as marriage material for Pierce. Both are firmly determined to ignore each other, but Alexandra is drawn to Pierce’s quick wit, irresistible charm and enviable scientific and engineering skill. However, close encounters with Pierce trigger an increase in the strange prophetic visions she has had all her life – visions that have no scientific basis or explanation. When a vision reveals the destruction of a ship Pierce designed, built and will sail on, she must risk a deepening love for Pierce against the loss of his life and all her future dreams.
