THE ADMIRAL'S DAUGHTER by SANDRA MADDEN
|
SummaryWhen Nantucket whaler Benjamin Swain joins the Navy, his
plan is straightforward. Work his way up to officer, marry
a pleasant woman and use his newly honed skills to design
revolutionary ships for the Navy. Beginning as a lowly
seaman, his first assignment is to teach sailing at the
fledgling Naval Academy at Annapolis, a simple enough
task.
Until he meets Sophie Harrington, the admiral's daughter.
Impulsive and rebellious, Sophie is also beautiful, a fact
Ben vows to ignore. Nothing will ruin his well-laid plan
quicker than an entanglement with his superior's only
child. But Sophie, balking at her father's insistence that
she marry an officer and dreaming of writing a novel, is
determined to learn to sail. Ben is the logical teacher -
but nothing like the man he knows her father envisions for
her. Arguing with Sophie is like shouting at the wind,
however, and soon Ben wants nothing more to silence her
protests with kisses, so she can hear him say "I love you."
