Melyonen — Anne Lowing

A YOUNG GIRL'S DEATHLESS VOW.

When a cruel magistrate sentenced her young brother to hang for a petty theft, Melyonen swore vengeance on the man and all his heirs. But the time to act was not yet, for Melyonen was still a girl, poor and helpless. Never abandoning her purpose, Melly endured a vagabond life, hardships, and even imprisonment.

Then, adopted by a kindly family, she finds love in the arms of Jonathon, a handsome sea captain. Through it all, Melly has never forgotten her vow…but at the moment when revenge lies within her grasp, her beloved Jonathon is missing, and presumed dead. And she discovers that she's falling in love with Sebastian, the son of her lifelong enemy.

Set in war-torn seventeenth-century England, Melyonen is an exciting novel of adventure and a woman's quest of justice and love.
