Shadowed Destiny — Rita Gallagher

She was midnight's child, born to love under a...Shadowed Destiny

BORN TO SEIZE MORNING'S GOLDEN PROMISE...

A mere child, she'd fled the squalid New York docks and a brutal stepfather--a ragged stowaway to be discovered and adopted by a wealthy Maine shipowner. A headstrong beauty, Amy Fitzgerald had been raised in luxury, yet even as she stood on the threshold of womanhood, she was haunted by the bitter past.

Did she dare love when it had been foretold that all she loved would suffer? Did she dare trust the dashing Brad Nolan--gone to rebuild his war-ravaged plantation--his passionate promise to return? Swept from Maine to Canada, from Louisiana to her family's ancestral Irish halls, Amy would be driven to understand the past before she could seize the future, the radiant love waiting beyond a...Shadowed Destiny.
