“Sylvia Halliday spins a marvelous tale." —RT BOOK REVIEWS
Unable to deny the attraction that simmers between them on the long journey from Canada to France, Delphine, a wild hoyden and the captain's daughter, and Andre, a widower still mourning his lost wife, fall into one another’s arms on the last day of the voyage. But after an impassioned night, morning comes, the ship has docked, Delphine wakes alone, and Andre has fled.
Scorned, Delphine soon finds herself determined to avenge her broken heart. But a love that will not be denied may confound her journey to Andre's ruin.
