Gifts from the Sea

For months, Rachel Best has been watching the ocean from the beaches of Cape Cod for any sign of her missing husband. Although a funeral service was held, Rachel refuses to believe he is truly gone and she must now raise their daughter alone. Her hopes are further dashed when she helps to bring a single whaling boat ashore, only to discover yet another orphan of the sea-a brute of a man who is the complete opposite of her lost husband.Captain Jared Mitchell of the Huntress was in great spirits-celebrating a successful voyage-when he was separated from his ship. But finding himself under Rachel's care, and as weak as a kitten, is too much for the hardened sailor to bear-and a painful reminder of a personal tragedy he cannot forget. Now, brought together by fate, Rachel and Jared sense a growing affection-and a love which can heal them from guilt and fear if they'll only take the risk…Goodger, Jane is the author of 'Gifts from the Sea' with ISBN 9780451204783 and ISBN 0451204786.
