The Atlantic Ocean off the Cost of Virginia,
August 6, 1814

          What would it feel like to drown…to float listlessly down…down…beneath the chilled waters of the Atlantic? To feel salty fingers wrap around you, their deadly talons tugging you farther into the murky darkness, your lungs burning until they screamed for air that would never come…until finally, cloaked in a silent, peaceful tomb, you floated into eternity…

          Emeline Baratt pondered these things as she gazed upon the dark waves from the larboard railing of her father’s merchant brig — or rather, privateer — Charlotte.

 

Yes, I shared a little extra today! It still leaves questions… Is there a storm brewing? What happens next? Does Emeline end up in the ocean?

The Liberty Bride is scheduled to release on December 1st.  But good news, you can pre-order your copy today!

Wyoming Territory
Spring 1884

          Annie Gephart pressed her lips together to keep from begging Tom Passey — the greasiest, most foul-mouthed cowpuncher she’d ever met — to stay on.

 

You can almost feel the desperation. Annie clearly needs help if she’s wanting to keep Tom Passey on her ranch! Will Tom stay on a little longer?  Hmm…I’ll not tell!

What a first line! It begs the question, who is here? Are they friend? Are they foe?
