With Every Breath I Take (Celia Martin Books)

December 1692. When Sefton Ridgely set out for Salem Massachusetts in the hope of convincing Serenity Norcross to return with him to New York he presumed when she agreed to accompany him that they would be traveling the post road and he had every expectation they would be spending their nights in if not clean at least dry inns or ordinaries. They would talk become better acquainted and perhaps love would blossom as they sat before cozy fires in private chambers.Ridgelys assumptions proved illusory. Instead due to Serenitys caring nature and readiness to help those less fortunate they find themselves in one precarious situation after another from camping out in a snowstorm to fording flooded creeks. His responsibilities increasing as first they adopt a baby whose mother died then they agree to escort two stranded children to their next destination he begins to wonder what else awaits them on their journey? Who else will Serenity befriend? But most importantly will he ever have a chance to win Serenitys love?
