The Baron's Quest

Book 1:Nicholas Vaughn is Lord of New Romney and also a Baron of the Cinque Ports. He directs a fleet of ships that service the king 15 days a year in exchange for special privileges from the Crown. When Muriel Draper causes havoc on his wharf, he realizes she is a spinster - a woman who spins wool for a living - from the town. Her late father has angered the Clothmaker's Guild and now Muriel and her brother have been excommunicated from the guild and also left with a debt to the baron that he insists Muriel repays. She can either give the baron her deceased mother's wedding ring - the only memory of her parents she has left - or she can live with him at his manor house and be his Personal Clothier to pay back the debt. Can a merchant's daughter and a Baron of the Cinque Ports find a safe harbor with the passion between them, or will title and status sink that ship before it's even sailed?
