This Wednesday I'm Waiting on: Blackhearts by Nicole Castroman
Blackbeard the pirate
was known for striking fear in the hearts of the bravest of sailors. But
once he was just a young man who dreamed of leaving his rigid life
behind to chase adventure in faraway lands. Nothing could stop him—until
he met the one girl who would change everything. This is their story.
Edward
"Teach" Drummond, son of one of Bristol's richest merchants, has just
returned from a year-long journey on the high seas to find his life in
shambles. Betrothed to a girl he doesn’t love and sick of the high
society he was born into, Teach dreams only of returning to the vast
ocean he’d begun to call home. There's just one problem: convincing his
father to let him leave and never come back.
Following her
parents' deaths, Anne Barrett is left penniless and soon to be homeless.
Though she’s barely worked a day in her life, Anne is forced to take a
job as a maid in the home of Master Drummond. Lonely days stretch into
weeks, and Anne longs for escape. How will she ever realize her dream of
sailing to CuraƧao—where her mother was born—when she's stuck in
England?
From the moment Teach and Anne meet, they set the world
ablaze. Drawn to each other, they’re trapped by society and their own
circumstances. Faced with an impossible choice, they must decide to
chase their dreams and go, or follow their hearts and stay.
