Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Fortune-seeker Charles Locke encounters rich heiress Sarah Carlyle while traveling at sea, but a growing romance is soon stymied by their different views of wealth and the question of whether Charles loves Sarah or her money.

Synopsis:

She is determined to be rid of her fortune. He is driven to gain the riches hes always dreamed of.

Bound by love . . . torn by wealth . . . their hearts must pay the price of true devotion.

All of high society is abuzz with the arrival of the man who miraculously survived a pirate attack at sea. Little do they know that more than riches were stolen that fateful day. For it was then that Sarah Carlyle stole Charles Lockes heart.

But now that they are safely back at home in England, they discover that perhaps love is not strong enough to hold their lives together. And was it ever truly love anyway? Perhaps Charles was only after Sarahs wealth.

Society tattler Miss Pickworth has a thing or two to say about that. But as she entertains the elite with the latest gossip, Sarah and Charles must search their hearts and choose between their passions and their ambitions. . . .

This wonderful book, was so full of love, life, heart ach, and understanding that I couldn't put it down. Was Sarah ever going to break through the cage she had put her heart in, or was Charles going to have to give up his very last dream and live with out her.
