A Heart Adrift

A Novel

By: Laura Frantz

Narrated by: Barbara McCulloh

It is 1755, and the threat of war with France looms over colonial York, Virginia. Chocolatier Esmée Shaw is fighting her own battle of the heart. Having reached her twenty-eighth birthday, she is reconciled to life alone after a decade-old failed love affair from which she’s never quite recovered. But she longs to find something worthwhile to do with her life.

Captain Henri Lennox has returned to port after a lengthy absence, intent on completing the lighthouse in the dangerous Chesapeake Bay, a dream he once shared with Esmée. But when the colonial government asks him to lead a secret
naval expedition against the French, his future is plunged into uncertainty.

Can Esmée and Henri’s shared vision and dedication to the colonial cause heal the wounds of the past and reunite them?

Twists and Turns

Set before the Revolutionary war. A young chocolatier and a privateer head into trouble on land and sea as they find their way back to each other. The whole family takes part. There is major sadness, and there is life.

Tender second chance romance

Twists and turns abound in this clean pre-American colonial romance. This tender love story is presented well.

It was ok

Nice story. Good performance. Just right for light listening. I believe I got it at a reduced price which was good.

Excellent!!!

Thank You, Laura Frantz, for another superior book. Thank you for all your research and effort that have gone into the completion of this story. I’ve gained a lot of spiritual strength and historical information from all your writings. I look forward to your next adventure in literature.

great story..

Loved it just like nearly all Laura Frantz stories, but the narrator needs to learn some old words. "Gaol" is jail, and pronounced so, not "goal." This among other mispronounciations.
