Sinopsis

One glance. A shipwreck. Can a love affair forged in peril sustain two independent spirits?Lavinia Onslow, who delights in the freedom of managing her fatherâÇÖs millinery shop in the heart of Savannah, Georgia, has decided she may defy convention and not marry after all. Yet, in the summer of 1838, on board the elegant steamshipáPulaski,ábound from Savannah to Baltimore, she exchanges glances with an intriguing young man. What can ensue from a mere glance? Quite a lot, as legend has it. That very night, the boiler of theáPulaskiáexplodes and the ship sinks, drowning most of its wealthy passengers. As Lavinia struggles in the water in her heavy dress, calling out for her father and thinking she will surely perish, someone dives in to rescue her, pulling her up next to him on a makeshift raft made of two deck settees. When she composes herself, she recognizes the intriguing man. There they float, alone but together, surrounded by ocean, thirty miles off the coast of North Carolina, desperate for a life-saving miracle.Is the bond she feels for this stranger more than an instinct for survival?Inspired by a legend --that may or not be true-- and set in the rich historic milieus of Savannah, New Orleans, and the coast of North Carolina,áBetween the Sky and the Seaáexplores how Lavinia OnslowâÇÖs desire to live as an independent woman transforms after surviving the wreck of theáPulaski.
