Publisher Description

Drake Weston, Duke of Northumberland, is heir to wealth, prestige, and power. But when his

rage pushes him to a tragic mistake, he must leave everything behind. Not just his home, but England herself. Cloaked in a false identity, Drake slips aboard a ship bearing indentured servants to America.

 

Serena Winter lives out her Quaker beliefs tending the sick who arrive on ships in the Philadelphia harbor. But never before has she seen such squalor and misery as she finds on the latest ship from England. Nor has she ever met such a one as the half-conscious man with the penetrating eyes and arrogant demeanor. Though she saves his life, even taking him into her family home, there is little gratitude or humility in this man. And yet Serena is certain that beneath the brash exterior is a heart in search of peace.

 

Against the rich backdrop of Regency-era England and a young America, two passionate, seeking hearts find in each other the strength to face hard truths— and confront an insidious web of deceit that may destroy all they hold dear.

"At first I gave this four stars, but I changed it to five. This was a great read. Everytime I thought I had it figured out, the author threw something new into the mix. Great characters, good mix of mystery and romance."

    " It was ok. Not great, but ok. Admittedly, I don't like all the "thee" and "thou" language. I do, however, understand that that is true to Quaker Religion and form. I can respect that aspect of the story for historically accurate purposes, I just didn't love it. "

    " I was surprised how, despite being a Christian author, Carie towed the line in sensuality in this romance. However, the intriguing plot turns and the powerful message of redemption made this book a really good read. :) "

    " I didn't think I would enjoy this "cheesy" summer read as much as I did. It was surprisingly deep and thoughtful in the under layers of the story. I really enjoyed it "

    " I couldn't make myself finish it-with my "to read" pile so large it didn't seem right. I didn't really care for the characters from the beginning so it wasn't grabbing me. I found Drake very self-absorbed and frustrating and Serena kind of ditzy. Although the scenery during the ship passage was pretty well done...it sounded miserable! "

    " Once again, good storyline! --But a bit too much of sensuality. I enjoyed the plot, but not the sensual scenes. I love to read, help me find books wihtout overmuch sensuality!! It can just about ruin a otherwise good book. :( "
