MISS WHITTIER MAKES A LIST 7/1994 ISBN: 0451181530 A Heart at Sea... Miss Hannah Whittier was a most proper young lady, but now she found herself in a most improper position.

This overbearingly arrogant officer was all that Hannah found infuriating in a man - and it should have been easy to repulse his advances - if only he were not so handsome - if only he did not know how to be so charming... if only she did not find that the salt air worked a sea change on her senses... as powerful currents swept her far from familiar shores into unknown waters where the compass of conscience could not guide her on a course that was headed for the shores of scandal and rocks of ruin...
