Other clues wash ashore, and Laura soon realizes he is not who he seems to be.

With danger pursuing them from every side, and an unexpected attraction growing between them, will Laura ever find the answers she seeks?
Reviews:
“Klassen delights with a winsome love story between an orphaned young woman living on the coast of North Cornwall, England, in 1813 and the shipwreck survivor she nurses back to health. Klassen steeps their romance in atmosphere and intrigue. The result is an entertaining and satisfying romance.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Danger abounds on the wild Cornwall coast and so does romance. With a perfect blend of intrigue and tender moments, A Castaway in Cornwall is my favorite Klassen title to date.”
