“I really liked this book. She was so spirited and determined to make her own way in a man's world and he was my kind of sea Captain. As predictable as romance novels are, I couldn't put this book down. I gave it five stars.”

“Like the author’s other historical romances, “The Homeward Heart” is very well written and well researched with careful attention to detail. The plot and subplots are so cleverly interwoven that nothing strains the imagination. The characters walk off the page, their behavior—good or bad—completely in keeping with the time period. The problem for the reader is the desire to keep reading while not wanting the story to end. I was sorry to turn the last page and end the adventure."
