As We Sweep Through the Deep

As We Sweep Through the Deep

Gordon Stables

Two years at sea can change a man, but it cannot quench his heart. Jack Mackenzie sails aboard the frigate Ocean Pride, his thoughts never far from the girl he left behind. Gerty Keane loves him too, yet she remains bound by something stronger than geography: her loyalty to her father, a man whose disapproval could shadow their future. When financial troubles rock Jack's family estate, Grantley Hall, and the threads of duty and desire pull in opposite directions, the young sailor must navigate more than stormy waters. Gordon Stables weaves naval adventure with tender romance in this Victorian tale of men who sweep through the deep and women who wait on shore, all wondering if honor will cost them everything they love. For readers who crave the wind-salt taste of old sea stories and the ache of forbidden love.
