Synopsis:
She
risks everything to deliver gold to the Confederacy.
Lillie
Coulbourne marks time in Paris while the Civil War rages back home.
While translating dispatches from the Confederacy for the French
Finance Ministry, she accepts a spy mission through the Union
blockade. When the captain of the only blockade runner headed back to
a Southern port won’t deal with women, or spies, she sneaks aboard
as his cabin boy.
He
refuses to risk his ship, or his heart.
Blockade
runner Captain Jack Roberts has never been caught and he’s not
about to let a spoiled American heiress ruin his perfect record.
After he discovers her deception, he fails miserably at keeping her
at arm’s length and vows to send her packing on the first mail ship
back to England.
When
she surprises him with her skill as a seaman and navigator, he
grudgingly allows her to finish the run. But ultimately, he has to
choose what is closer to his heart – Lillie or his ship.
Debut
author, Andrea K Stein, takes the Historical Romance genre by storm
with FORTUNE’S HORIZON.
Fans
of Danielle Harmon's Heroes of the Sea series will love FORTUNE'S
HORIZON—a humorous, high adventure historical romance from debut
author Andrea Stein in which a spoiled American heiress tangles with
an arrogant British sea captain on a mission for the Confederacy on
the high seas.
Help
welcome Andrea K Stein to the wonderful world of romance and
celebrate her debut novel, FORTUNE’S HORIZON. Andrea is doing a
month long blog hop to celebrate and she is super excited to share
her stories with you. The blog hop features spotlight posts,
reviews, interviews (both of Andrea and of her characters, Lillie and
Captain Jack…and maybe others) and guest posts. <GIVEAWAY INFO>
A
really fun fact that helps set Andrea’s covers apart from all the
other gorgeous covers in the historical romance world—her cover
model isn’t really a cover model at all. Andrea wanted to do
something different, something special. So, she asked some local
heroes to help her out. The model for FORTUNE’S HORIZON is an
avalanche search and rescue specialist…who also trains search and
rescue dogs. With the help of the brilliant cover designer, Kim
Killion, Andrea was able to have her vision realized.
About
Andrea
K Stein
Daddy
was a trucker, Momma was an artist, and I'm a scribbler. The stories
just spilled out—the pony escaped, the window magically shattered.
Not my fault.
Twenty
years as a journalist couldn't stifle the yarns. Yacht delivery up
and down the Caribbean only increased the flow. Now those tales
celebrate romance on the high seas.
I
am a professional captain living in the Rocky Mountains, just about
15 minutes from the Continental Divide. I spent the last 12 summers
teaching sailing on awesome Lake Dillon at 9,017 feet in Summit
County, Colorado. I also captained tours for my business, Sails in
the Sunset.
