Description

Captain Sir Thomas Kydd must navigate treacherous waters when he's tasked with aiding the Portuguese Royal Family's evacuation from Lisbon. As Napoleon's forces close in, an old flame is rekindled with Persephone Lockwood, a determined and beautiful admiral's daughter. But their chance at happiness seems lost when they discover her true destination - Brazil. Kydd soon finds himself drawn into the high-stakes world of London society, where he must use his seamanship to win the hand of the woman he loves. Taking temporary command of the Royal Yacht, Kydd faces a new set of challenges as he sails to Yarmouth, pursued by French privateers. The fate of a prince of the blood hangs in the balance, and only daring action will save him. With its masterful blend of naval action and romance, this gripping tale will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
