Hi everyone! I am so excited about my book, RIDING OUT THE STORM. It is book 6 of my Below the Salt Series where nobles fall in love with commoners, or someone from below the salt.
Lord Gar Blackmore had a very different childhood than most nobles. He first shows up as the son of Echo (my lady pirate from Lady of the Mist: Legacy of the Blade Series) who was stolen and raised by pirates and later discovers she is really a noble. Gar loves to sail and adores the sea. When he has the chance to take a job for an international merchant sailing the ship of his dreams, he jumps on it. But he doesn’t realize the merchant has died and his widow, Josefina Waterman now runs her husband’s business, owns the ship, and is his boss for the duration of the trip.
Take an exciting journey on the high seas with Gar and Josefina where you’ll experience storms, adventure, challenges, romance and of course, pirates too.

T is for Trouble, something that follows them everywhere they go
H is for Hothead Harry, a crewmember who makes a huge mistake
E is for Etta, the stowaway girl they find in the hold

T is for Trade Fair that starts in Scarborough
O is for Ornery which is the disposition of the cat they find aboard the ship
R is for Risk, since Gar will risk losing everything he’s ever wanted by falling in love with a commoner
M is for marriage – something that neither Josefina nor Gar are expecting to happen to them
Love has no bounds, but marriage has rules. A noble must never marry from below the salt!
Below the Salt #6
The English Lord:
Lord Gar Blackmore is the eldest of the cousins and still not married. As a child he was raised by pirates and even though he sails ships for the king, he is aware of the whispers that go on behind his back. Getting the chance to sail the ship of his dreams, he eagerly accepts the job of captaining an overseas merchant trade ship. At first, Gar doesn't know that the owner of the ship has passed away and that his business is being run by his attractive but bossy widow. Worse yet, the woman plans to sail with him! Everyone knows a woman on board is bad luck. And what Gar is about to experience is anything but a calm sea.
The Widow:
Josefina Waterman is a widow from a loveless marriage. Since her late husband was a guildmember, it is her right to carry on the business for him. As an overseas trade merchant, she needs to hire a captain who can handle her large ship as well as the North Sea. The nobleman she's hired is said to be the best, but she finds him arrogant and rude! He's less than happy that she will be joining him on the journey. But every man has his weakness, and once they start working out their differences, they are noticing each other more than they should.
Sometimes opposites attract in ways never expected. When dreams suddenly turn to nightmares on the high seas, will Gar and Josefina's attraction to each other be strong enough to ride out the storm?
Love has no bounds but marriage has rules. A noble must never marry anyone from below the salt.
