Publisher's Synopsis
Kelsey Lanier had never given much thought to marriage until she was given an ultimatum. Chose a husband or have one chosen for her. Neither truly appealed to her until Brandt Alexander, a handsome sea captain just returned to the port of Charleston, re-entered her life. He was everything a young girl could want as a husband. But as Kelsey would soon realize, he had no intention of marrying. Brandt Alexander had always reveled in the freedom of his life at sea. Nothing tied him to the land, and nothing ever would. But he had not counted on falling under the spell of the winsome Kelsey Lanier and soon found that he had developed feelings for her that he could not deny. But an accident would force him to return to sea just as they realize the extent of their love for one another. Vowing they would marry upon his return, neither could know of the circumstances that led to a betrayal that would indeed force Kelsey into the marriage chosen for her. But as one unfortunate event had torn them apart, another would bring them together again and tempt them to remember a love not forgotten.
