The news is followed by Donal'scomrade-in-arms, Adam Blakely, who arrives a month later on Kilronan's scenicshores. He's come to return Rose's letters. Letters that Adam has re-read ahundred times. Two weeks stretch into two glorious months, then Adam's fatherfalls ill, and he's summoned home to New York. He leaves Rose with the memoryof a beautiful night and the promise of marriage. Yet Rose's eighteenthbirthday comes and goes, and she doesn't hear a word. Unable to ignore thechild growing inside of her, she leaves the only home she's ever known,clutching Adam's address. But in New York's crowded harbor, she's met with acruel awakening.
