Where the Stars Meet the Sea






Where the Stars Meet the Sea is Heidi Kimball's latest tale.  On the opening pages of this book, you will meet Juliet Graham as she is headed to the Shaldorn Castle for a house party with her aunt.  Juliet knows that her family is expecting her to help her cousin, Hugh, capture the heart of Lady Ellen, the daughter of the Everdale family.  However, when Juliet meets a boorish man in the halls of the castle, she will soon discover that he is actually the infamous Duke of Halstead!

This is a high paced tale.  As Juliet verbally spars with Halstead, you will see feelings for him begin to grow.  When Juliet learns that her other cousin, Robert, is romantically interested in her, she does not know what to do to.  Should she open her heart towards Halstead, a man much higher in rank than she is or turn toward Robert, the man who has always been her dear friend?

This tale gets even more complicated when Juliet's eleven-year-old brother, Harry, runs away from boarding school with the hopes of sailing the seas.  Juliet had been waiting for the day that she could become Harry's guardian; however, now she must rescue him from making a big mistake.  Juliet will be surprised when one of these men shows up to assist her in her efforts!

You will wonder if Juliet's heart follow the direction of society or if she will be strong enough to follow her heart's desire?
