Mary Elise, Elise Wright has grown up cooking and caring for the crew. It is a life she loves. Unlike her estranged sister, Elise has turned down numerous opportunities for a \x27respectable life\x27 with their wealthy relatives. And now, because of promises she made to her dying mother, she\x27s bound to the ship and her deeply grieving father more than ever. Nick Clark is grateful to be hired on as the Mary Elise\x27s first mate as he works to overcome his own guilt and others\x27 censure for a fatal decision he made captaining another ship.

He feels protective of the Wrights and their generous natures, especially when a rough new sailor seems intent on causing serious trouble. As the sailor\x27s misdeeds grow, tragedy swells up from another corner. Left to pick up the pieces of the commitments they\x27ve made to themselves and to each other, Nick and Elise will have to rely on their faith to see them through. Great Lakes shipping and port growth give the romance a commercial and maritime setting, while faith guides the characters through betrayal, danger and difficult responsibility.
