Synopsis

When a fading aristocrat and a restless American woman cross paths at sea and beyond, society’s rules collide with longing.

On a grand sailing voyage, wealth, titles, and old-world manners meet a new world of ambition and flirtation. The book follows a pair of travelers whose wit and restraint are tested by the heat of attraction, the pull of duty, and the lure of a life they never expected to chase. With sharp dialogue and vivid scenes from decks to distant towns, it illuminates how love can challenge convention and reshape two very different lives.

- A sparkling social portrait of travelers, hotels, and the collision of English reserve with American audacity
- Witty exchanges, flirtations, and moral tension that drive the romance without losing the era’s atmosphere
- Moments of humor and pathos set against lush travel and frontier settings
- A story that explores class, reputation, and the price of choosing love over propriety

Ideal for readers of period romance with a moral edge, crisp banter, and scenes that blend travel, high society, and a touch of danger.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
