So I have been looking for this book for some time but cannot find it so any help would be great.
So the book is set around the American Revolution. I can t remember any character names but the female leads nickname is cottontop because her hair is almost white. In the beginning of the book she is somehow in trouble and a ship captain she has know for a long time and who happens to be in port agrees to marry her and take her out of town. They secretly marry and after some small adventures that I can t quite remember they finally make it to his home in Jamaica. Again after some more adventure and plot twists (and the main characters finally falling in love) he tells her he has to sail to France but wants her to go to America with some of his friends. It turns out he is going to France because his mistress just told him she had his baby and the baby is in France. So he heads to France but the mistress was lying and went to see his wife and give her the baby. So his wife and baby son travel to America but the war has broken out once they get there so is somewhat a captive in her families home who are loyal British subjects. She meets her cousin who is a British solider who falls in love with her. She has to tell everyone her husband is dead. After much time she finds out he really did die and is again in trouble. So she marries her cousin and falls in love with him. She gets pregnant but her new husband gets a dangerous assignment that kills him. She then find out from his father that her first husband is not dead and is in a prison. He finally gets out and they reunite.
