When Mist and Brine Touch (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781968524043)

In 1894, a brutal pirate attack leaves Captain Littledove gravely wounded and his ship adrift with only one survivor - Eliza, a high-society passenger who has never worked a day in her life. Now this unlikely pair must overcome their vast social differences to survive. While Eliza battles rats, hacks apart furniture for firewood, and struggles to keep the cantankerous captain alive, she discovers strengths she never knew she possessed. And as Littledove guides her in keeping their abandoned vessel afloat, he begins to see past her refined manners to recognize a courage that matches his own.

From Isabel Tutaine, acclaimed author of Song of the Wooden Sparrow, comes a sweeping tale of survival and transformation on the high seas. As attraction blooms between a captain who believes he could never be worthy of a lady and a socialite who thinks herself useless to a seafaring man, both must challenge the assumptions that have defined their lives. When Mist and Brine Touch is a masterful exploration of how crisis can shatter social barriers and unlock the potential that lies dormant within us all.
