Book excerpt: Sweet, innocent Mercy had always believed the stars foretold the future. Even the name of the ship on which she was sailing to America appeared to be a fortuitous omen, for the Capricorn was swiftly carrying her to her bridegroom's waiting arms.But her faith was shattered when she was subjected to violent, unspeakable indignities by the clipper's crew - vicious men who amused themselves by abusing the beautiful, virtuous young women - until a dashing, noble seaman saved her from further shame.Adrift together on a stormy sea, Mercy and Clifford are swept ashore onto a strange and exotic island ... where they must survive amidst angry passions fanned by the winds of war.As Cuba rages with rebellion, they risk their lives for freedom ... and a love that even fate dare not deny!
