Silver Shores

FAR DESTINY

The Yardleys of San Francisco had never planned to go back to New Zealand. But now, young May Yardley, reared in the genteel luxury of a wealthy shipping family, would be forced to know the dark scandal that had driven her mother from those shores.

There, in New Zealand, the sea captain May had idolized since she was a child asked her to be his bride. It seemed the fulfillment of May's most romantic dreams....until jealousy and slander drove her beloved captain to hurt May cruelly, unforgivably.

With her girlhood illusions shattered, and her innocence despoiled, May might have let her heart die. But with the stronger passions of womanhood, she dared instead to let her heart love again....to want the man people said was wrong, but whose love she now knew was right.
