Publisher's summary

For John and Laura Foster, what began as a fairy-tale honeymoon in 1857 aboard the steamship SS Vandervere quickly turns into a nightmare. A terrible hurricane strikes, and the grand ship begins to sink.

Just before it goes under, a rescue ship appears on the horizon. But it only has room enough to save the women and children.

Laura soon finds herself sailing away toward New York city on a ship filled with orphans and widows to meet John's family, whom she's never met. Desperate for a miracle, Laura braces herself to face life alone.

A Delightful Story

So glad to know there is an author who does not feel he has to resort to unpleasant language and content to write a wonderful story. Bravo Dan Walsh !
