ARC Arrival: The Blue Enchantress by M.L. Tyndall

The Blue Enchantress (Charles Towne Belles/Book 2) by M.L. Tyndall

Publisher: Barbour Books

I received this book from the author after reading The Red Siren - Book 1 of the Charles Towne Belles. You can see my review of The Red Siren here - but know I am REALLY looking forward to reading this one! It will also be on a First Wild Card Tour later this month.

About the book: Still grieving the loss of her mother--and private tragedies of her own--Hope Westcott plays the part of a dutiful admiral's daughter. But longing for the love and acceptance she never felt at home, Hope plunges into Charles Towne society. . .and an illicit affair with Lord Falkland.

For Captain Nathaniel Mason, wealth means security, so he is determined to build his shipping business--ignoring God's call on his life to become an impoverished pastor. He also ignores his attraction to the frivolous, vain Hope Westcott.

Hope's adventure seeking lands her in the hands of an unscrupulous ship captain who wants to sell her to the highest bidder. When Nathaniel sees Hope on the auction block, will he listen to God and sacrifice his ship, cargo, and security to save her?

From the Carolina Coast to the Caribbean, through stormy seas and shipwreck, can Hope and Nathaniel put aside their painful pasts , listen to God's voice, and find true love and acceptance? (from the back cover)

About the author: M.L. Tyndall, a Christy Award finalist, lives in California with her husband, six grown children and four cats. (from the back cover)
