Showing Port Royal by Linda Lee Chaikin

As the Caribbean Sea teems with piracy and privateering, Captain Baret
"Foxworth" Buckington searches for his father. Though declared legally dead, Baret
is certain his father is alive, perhaps being held prisoner. Willing to jeopardize
his title, his inheritance, and his life in order to find his father, he sets sail
and swears vengeance upon Spain.

Amidst the slavery, brutality, and cruel
gossip on a Jamican Sugar estate, Miss Emerald Harwick seeks an escape. Rejected
by her father's wealthy family, Emerald is constantly reminded of her deceased mother's
notorious reputation and her father's escapades on the high seas. Only two things
keep her going--working in the Christian Singing School and her plans to secretly
marry an indentured servant. In desperation, they plan to leave Jamaica. But Emerald's
father has other plans!

As their paths intertwine, Emerald and Baret set
out on a journey filled with danger, intrigue, and romance.
