Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Beauvallet" by Georgette Heyer is a historical novel set in the late 19th to early 20th century. The story follows Sir Nicholas Beauvallet, a daring English freebooter, who engages in a fierce naval battle with a Spanish galleon, the "Santa Maria". Amidst this tumultuous backdrop, Beauvallet encounters Doña Dominica, the spirited daughter of the galleon's captain, leading to a blend of adventure and romance as he vows to win her heart. The opening portion introduces us to the chaos of battle on the high seas, where the Spanish ship is under assault from Beauvallet's vessel. As the fight becomes increasingly desperate, we witness the formidable prowess of Beauvallet and his crew as they board the galleon, showcasing his bravado and skill. Dominica emerges as a strong character, caught between the threat of the pirates and an undeniable connection to Beauvallet, who seizes the opportunity to make a bold claim about his intentions toward her. This tension sets the stage for a spirited tale that promises a mix of danger, romance, and humor as the characters navigate their fates entwined on the turbulent waters.
