she must help save her brother. To do so she needs to put her trust in the one
man who can protect her. But can she protect her heart from loving him again?
Found at sea
Captain
Marcus Thornhill never imagined he would find a lady floating unconscious in a
lifeboat out in the middle of the open sea. But it wasn’t any lady, it was Ivy.
Seven years earlier he rejected her love for a life at sea. As he rescues her
he gets involved in a treason plot that will bring the war to their beloved
shores of England. As he unravels the plot he is unable to deny his desire for
her. Is he too late in saving her and the love he has for her?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
Thorn
stood at the bow of his ship ‘My Hedera’ starring out into the dark night, lost
in his deep thoughts. The brigantine dipped and swayed into the huge waves that
rocked the sea. Dark storm clouds stretched across the skies blending into the
black sea. None of the stars lighted the sky tonight; because the heavens had
opened for a fierce storm. As he ran his fingers through his long, dark, wet
hair he brought them down to his sides, fisting his hands in anger. The storm
was nothing compared to the turmoil of emotions that were running through him.
“Captain,
do you think it is her?” Sammy his first mate shouted to be heard above the
thunder as he twisted his hat in between his hands.
“I
don’t know Sammy, I don’t know.” Thorn whispered into the storm.
Marcus
Thornhill, Thorn to his friends continued starring out into the dark night. He
knew it was her; he just didn’t want to admit to it. While trying to get
control of his anger he tried to figure out who would have done such an awful
thing to her. Before he returned to her he needed to be calm. He was angrier
with himself than with anyone else. If he would have come home sooner, he could
have prevented something like this from happening.

AUTHOR BIO:
I
have always dreamed of being an aspiring author. I am making my dreams come
true, one word at a time. When I am not writing, I am spending time with my
family. I love reading books on lazy afternoons, and late into the night.
Anytime really. Married 28 years to the love of my life and we have three
wonderful children and two sweet grandbabies. Besides writing, I have always
wanted to travel. In the last few years we have gotten our passport stamped in
England and Scotland. We are hoping to add Italy to the list soon.
