My Particular Friend Kindle Edition

In this second novel in the Rian and Mouse series, it is 1807 and Napoleon Bonaparte consumes all of Europe in total war. Only England and her allies stand in the way as France attempts to rule the world.Two young sailors, Adrian ‘Rian’ Pembroke and the love of his life, Richard ‘Mouse’ Jay, have readjusted to life on England’s shores after being rescued from a disaster at sea by the cutter, Cleo; as stout and as happy a ship as ever there was. Having found lodgings in London with a caring, elderly couple who practically adopt the lads as their own, Rian and Mouse set their sights on returning to a life at sea.Summoned by the government, the erstwhile seafarers miss their ship but are determined to follow her to Canada and rejoin her there. When the Cleo is suddenly diverted to America to deliver a critical diplomatic letter from the Crown, an unexpected development puts the ship and her crew in great peril. All this as Napoleon prepares to invade Britain with the help of a treasonous shipyard and a neutral nation that is anything but.Enjoy Rian and Mouse, their adventures, and the pure love that they share with each other as they do the very best that they can to make sense of a cold, cruel world.
