Product Description

Product Description

Marie's mother died protecting something, but what? Determined to find answers, Marie is prepared to go to any length to locate her mother’s legacy, even to pursue the man responsible for her death - Black Vane. No price is too dear to Marie, who gambles everything on a marriage of convenience to a ship's captain she knows she can’t trust, but who may be one ally she needs.

This is a historic story of romance and adventure, set on the Caribbean seas of the early 1800's, a tale of betrayal and sacrifice in pursuit of an unknown goal.

This is a clean novel of approx 85,000 words long.

About the Author

Jess was born in the quaint village of Woodbridge, has spent some of her childhood in the States and now resides in the beautiful Roman city of Bath. She lives with her husband Phil and her very dapsy cat, Pleaides. Jess can often be found either in a cafe, grinning behind a large mug of hot chocolate, at her desk, getting annoyed with her cat for sitting on her keyboard, or on her comfy corner sofa with friends, enjoying her high definition tv and surround sound system.

Wow, just wow 7 Dec 2010
Format:Kindle Edition
I must admit, I've not read much romance, but this isn't really a romance. It
has a romance, and its quite important, but there's way too much adventure for
a typical period romance. Or at least in my opinion there is. But let me
assure you this is no bad thing. The author has a talent for balancing the
romance and the adventure, so that it will appeal to fans of either genre.

The story is an awesome one, and one that will have you hooked. I was and
would say its the first un-put-downable ebook I've bought from this site. That
I could read it on my phone meant that there was no situation where I couldn't
read it, so I missed no opportunity. And by the end, I just wanted more!

I would describe it as like Pirates of the caribbean, but with the addition of
historical accuracy, a convincing and interesting romance and unfortunately,
without Johnny Depp. Thats about the only thing I would say this missed, a
Jack Sparrow, but then I'd have to give it 6 stars!

"With Proud Humility" by Jess Mountifield revives swashbuckling adventure stories.

This is a good story told very well. Author Mountifield sets a new standard on adventure stories and crafts characters like they are people we know. This is a nonstop high seas adventure with a powerful female leading character.

This book achieves a level of quality that earn a 5 star rating. Buy this book and get ready for a tale with pirates, lost maps, a hidden treasure horde, danger and intrigue. This is one of the books you won't want to put down. This would be one author to follow for future books as well.

Awesome 24 Dec 2010
Format:Kindle Edition
I really enjoyed the book, it's not often that a romance grips me like that. It has the correct balance between romance, pirates, mystery and action! It includes sword fights, ship battles and tension between characters. Definitely a worthwhile read!
