    Summary

    Wasted potential is far more offensive to a teacher than outright mediocrity, and it is for that reason, chiefly, that she considers him to be one of the great disappointments of her career.

    Summary

    "The omnioculars often appear on these assignments. Tonks pulled them to bits and retooled them, charmed in some additional features. She does that: takes things apart, prods at their innards. Leaves her mark. Ten whole galleons at the world cup — proper bargain, she'd informed him, shocked when he admitted not attending. Everyone went, apparently."

    Summary

    Marilyn, a front-line nurse from 1943, is no stranger to the horrors of war. But when her destroyer sinks off the coast of Cuba, she doesn’t find death in the depths of the Atlantic. Instead, she is pulled from the waves by the crew of the HMS Dauntless in the year 1747. Trapped between accusations of espionage and the rigid prejudices of the 18th century, Marilyn must navigate a world of sail, superstition, and high-society etiquette. Her greatest challenge? Commodore James Norrington. A man bound by honor and duty, whose world is as disciplined as hers was — yet separated by two hundred years of history.
