After being rescued in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, an adolescent English woman naively falls in love with the problematic pirate captain of the Sea Eagle on her crossing to America. Throughout their association, the secrecy surrounding this troubled man captivates Edwina Stewart’s youthful romantic fantasies.
In a far-reaching epic that is launched in the Atlantic Ocean in 1822, continues into the Caribbean, and extends into the era of the slavery system in Louisiana, Edwina presides over an eleven year quest to unravel the issues enfolded in the anonymity this mysterious man safeguards.
Driven by the disappointment of this fateful love, the starry-eyed girl undergoes the trials of harsh and oftentimes cruel reality on her venture toward womanhood. In stages, Edwina grapples with the inherent substance of her character as she is drawn into the world of adult problems.
By trial and error her moral fiber begins to develop, and Edwina eventually obtains the confidence to become a woman in her own right. By letting her kind heart and conscience be her guide, she undertakes tackling injustices she has had to bear by rectifying what she determines to be wrong.
Utilizing the strength of a stable, experienced woman, Edwina finally comprehends it will take this durable, self-assured woman to submit to a choice she feels destiny compelled her to in order to find happiness in love. $2.99 on Kindle.
