A passion she had only written about in her novels now revealed to Madeline’s astonishment on the deck of a ship named Revenge. This wonderful page turner by Nancy Anne Enns has romance, pirates, time travel, railroads, orphans, sailing ships and a dog named Lucky. It takes place in 1920’s Boston and 1620’s St Augustine!Madeline awoke and stretched languidly in the amazing warm bed in the thin sunbeam streaming through the curtains. With a satiated smile she reached out to touch the bed beside her. It was cool to the touch and empty! Oh, it was all a dream! Occupational hazard from being an author of naughty stories for ladies in dime novels! Well at least she’d be able to leave the hotel with her virtue intact. Little did she know that there would be ships, pirates, time travel, grand adventures and a dashing Sea Captain named Thor in her future!FIRST FEW PAGES OF THIS BOOKSHE HAD ARRIVED IN Boston yesterday after a long journey by train in her father’s private luxury car from Kansas City.Railroad tycoon Warren Chadwick III had placed her on the train himself making sure she had plenty of money and the handsome set of tapestry luggage he had purchased for her.Three weeks earlier he had noticed she seemed bored and Warren thought at twenty-three years of age, perhaps it was time for Maddie to strike out on a grand adventure and discover what she wanted to do with her life.After all, he had great wealth and he wanted her to enjoy her inheritance while he was still around to see it. So, he called her into the parlor and asked her to pick any city destination to begin exploring her future. Maddie had chosen Boston by the bay to begin. So, Warren had to set up a healthy bank account in her name and secured her ticket.He hoped her new surroundings of a bustling seaside city would be an eye-opening experience and inspire some direction for her. So, with excitement and a tear in their eyes, they embraced and said goodbye for now.It was a cool October day in Kansas City which would make the journey more comfortable.“Don’t worry my dear I’ll be out to celebrate Christmas with you in no time.” Said Warren.Ever since Maddie’s mother passed away from a mysterious illness when Maddie was eight years old, Christmas was a cherished time between father and daughter. They would look at photographs of the three of them together during the happiest of times and keep Caroline’s memory alive. Warren had never been able to give his heart to another woman and so he poured all the love he had to give on his precious daughter.
