Lynn Kurland is the pen name of Lynn Curland. She writes paranormal romances about ghosts and Time-Travel and historical romances. Her first novel, Stardust Of Yesterday, was published in 1996 and introduced the de Piaget family. All her books feature members of that family, its Scottish counterpart - the MacLeods - or persons related to them.
While she writes connected stories, she doesn't publish them in chronological order. Heroes and heroines from earlier books appear in later titles, often enough chronological before the events told in their story. The origins of the feud in Stardust Of Yesterday of 1996 are told in Another Chance To Dream of 1998, the events leading to the murder play a major role in To Kiss In Shadows of 2002, the hero is on the way to meet his fate in The More I See You of 1999 and further information is given in Dreams Of Stardust of 2005. Since she jumps back and forth between the generations a family tree is supplied in her later books.
