Elizabeth shook her head. "I'll wager anything you like that my father will ask questions within ten minutes."

I'll bet Liz will win. Ol' Weatherby is lots sharper than first impression might suggest!

'"Lord, wouldn't Harry love this," Jack muttered, running his hand across the soft velvet coverlet that graced the bed.'

Boy, Jack is well on his way to getting thoroughly spoiled! He's gonna turn into a fop if something doesn't interrupt these monied revels... which I imagine it will.

'Tom turned over onto his back and stared up at the neat plank ceiling above him. That he must force the issue he knew very well... Stealing her away, having her all to himself...'

There, I knew it! Tom's a reckless as his Dad!

I'll be most interested to see how this unfolds.

He loves those shiny objects!

Jack's taught him all too well. ;)

Yes, Tom's a chip off the old block all right. :)

The Christiana sounds lovely.

I was fascinated to run across all that info on the Dutch yachts. Here's some more links with pics!

Yacht links with lots of pics (thought the Christiana is slightly larger, as I see her)...

Oh my sweet mary michael!!! The child's definitely taken smooth leave of his senses "Oh, she’d be upset, no doubt". I'm pretty sure Jack will kill him for taking the Christiana "There might be hell to pay in some quarters"!! and Norrington will kill him for stealing his child==all the other friends etc stuff notwithstanding!! Holy Moses, Jack will just absolutely come unglued.

"The moment he’d laid eyes on this bed he’d seen Annie adorning it" this is sweet and sexy, with positively Jack's stamp upon Tom. His lovely fanciful imaginings about how she'd be naked and pliant...so not what will be I'm thinking,But on the other hand--how funny is this going to be if he can pull it off half way even.

I am amazed--love the description of the Christiana, she sounds absolutely perfect for coastal cruising. And there's nothing in the world like a day sail that you can extend time on. It's so much fun! I feel as happy as Tom for the mind sail. Love it too much.

Thank you so much for commenting! I can't believe there are only 4 chapters to go (I just posted 15).

*hugs*

It is beautiful! We make the most beautiful ships in the world. <3 But I saw in London, Nelson's Ship, and it was also beautiful.

Um, Tom, you're nuts. Or I haven't read enough period romances to think this is a good idea.
Serve him right if he accidentally ends up with Caroline.
Eager to learn where this goes.

Tom has had an unusual set of parents, and though he is outwardly quite civilized, inside... not so much. ;)
