If I Wait For You — Jane Goodger

Everyone in New Bedford, Massachusetts believes Sara Dawes murdered her own parents. A price is on her head and someone has tried to kill her -- not for revenge but to keep her quiet. Fearing for her life, Sara begs the stern and too-handsome-for-his-own-good Captain West Mitchell to allow her to go with him when he leaves port. She wants only to be safe.

West Mitchell wants nothing to do with Sara, but when she nearly dies in his arms, he has no choice but to take her aboard his ship. He quickly realizes he's made a terrible mistake. The girl he thought would be a hindrance is finding a way into his heart -- a heart he'd already promised to another.

When West finally realizes he cannot live without Sara, it may already be too late…

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I'm a bit red-faced about this, but at the back of this book I allude to Jared's story as being unwritten. I did, in fact, write his story although it was never officially tied to this one. The result is that If I Wait For You is a prequel to Gifts From The Sea. Thanks K. Miller...and it's nice to have such wonderful fans out there!! I'll be getting all my older books out on Kindle soon!
