No Angel by Felicity Price

When American PR supremo Alex Zerakowski is brought to New Zealand from California's Napa Valley to help a Nelson winery that's sold land to a landfill developer, she expects protests and media outrage â€" that goes with the job. But being caught up in an intricate web of deceit putting her life at risk? Nor was she prepared for the past to have such an impact on her. Alex finds a diary that belonged to Carrie O'Neill, who came to the village of Hope (near Nelson) following Richard Burgess, her young, handsome lover and the father of her unborn child. There she endured his trial and execution as the leader of the Burgess gang, responsible for the infamous Maungatapu Murders that shook New Zealand in 1866. Alex realizes that her penchant for living on the edge parallels Carrie's situation in more ways than one. Alex is no angel, but the events that unfold shock even her.
