Ship of Dreams
“A rousing adventure and a grand romance.” ~Susan Wiggs
Falsely accused of murder, Della Gilliland flees wild, wicked, post-Gold Rush San Francisco aboard an outbound steamer. Stuffy New York businessman Kent Bradford is shocked when a lovely redhead he’s never met suddenly introduces herself as his wife to an important business contact. Fearing a scene, he plays along . . . for the moment. But moments turn into weeks and growing attraction becomes something more. Then, only days out from New York, their ship encounters a hurricane that threatens not only their budding love, but their very lives.
This romantic historical novel was originally published by HarperCollins. Often likened to “Titanic,” Ship of Dreams is set amid the aftermath of the California Gold Rush and the real events of the final, ill-fated voyage of the SS Central America in 1857. Relive the experiences of her passengers, as told through the eyes of a fictitious couple who find love and adventure on the high seas. Available for Kindle, Nook and all other formats.
“Ship of Dreams starts as light adventure then swirls the characters and the reader into passion and danger that challenge body, heart, and soul. A gripping read.” ~ Jo Beverley, NYT Bestselling Author
