As hundreds of single men congregate along the shore of Vancouver Island, eager to claim a bride from the ship, will Mercy and Joseph miss their chance at love? -- adapted from back cover.
In 1862, Mercy escapes a bleak future in London and joins a bride ship. Wealthy and titled, Joseph becomes the ship's surgeon to avoid the pain of losing his family. He has no intention of settling down, but when Mercy becomes his assistant, they must fight against a forbidden love.
Based on the bride ships that left England's shores in the 1860s destined for Victoria on Vancouver Island (which was at that time still a colony of England and not yet part of Canada).
