The Homeward Heart

Drumfield Village, England 1750

Beautiful, strong-willed, and clever, Rorie Shelbourne always prided herself on being able to control any situation with her keen wit and sharp tongue-until a mysterious sea captain from the colonies burst into her life and proved her wrong. He claimed to have come to trade, but is he the sword of vengeance the Gypsy had prophesied would appear? Is he the force Rorie had been warned to avoid? As she is drawn into a world of danger and intrigue where things are not as they seem, she fears that the seductive Captain Deveraux may have a nefarious purpose in bending her to his will.
