Nature of a Lady by Roseanna White
Nature of a Lady by Roseanna White
Book 1 of Secrets of the Isles
Summary:
1906
Lady Elizabeth "Libby" Sinclair, with her love of microscopes and nature, isn't favored in society. She flees to the beautiful Isles of Scilly for the summer and stumbles into the dangerous secrets left behind by her holiday cottage's former occupant, also named Elizabeth, who mysteriously vanished.
Oliver Tremayne--gentleman and clergyman--is determined to discover what happened to his sister, and he's happy to accept the help of the girl now living in what should have been Beth's summer cottage . . . especially when he realizes it's the curious young lady he met briefly two years ago, who shares his love of botany and biology. But the hunt for his sister involves far more than nature walks, and he can't quite believe all the secrets Beth had been keeping from him.
As Libby and Oliver work together, they find ancient legends, pirate wrecks, betrayal, and the most mysterious phenomenon of all: love.

Opening Lines:
He was a prince at sea. That's what John Mucknell shouted whenever battle was upon him.
Even before he'd stolen the East India Company ship, against whose deck his feet were now braced. Even before he'd presented himself and the John to the exiled Prince of Wales, offering their services against those blasted Parliamentarians who had taken over their country. Even before he'd been knighted and named vice admiral of this new royal fleet.
