Blurb:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A hunted pirate captain. A reverend’s daughter determined to bring him down.<\/em><\/p>\n

On a lush, secluded island, one passionate adventure leads to another\u2026.<\/em><\/p>\n

Diana Fletcher means business. The beautiful, innocent, reverend\u2019s daughter has traveled all the way to a tropical island off Madagascar on a mission: To find her brother\u2014and to punish the man who drove him to a life of piracy. But when she comes face to face with the enemy in question, the handsome, powerfully seductive man is not at all what Diana expected\u2026<\/p>\n

Tristan Kent never intended to harm Diana\u2019s brother. A man of humble origins, Tristan claims he tried to save him\u00a0from another ruthless captain.\u00a0Diana is desperate to believe he is telling the truth\u2026and that the intoxicating desire that escalates between them is true as well. But can she trust him? Or is Tristan\u2019s story\u2014and his heart\u2014nothing more than fool\u2019s gold? Amid the haze of sensual delights and soaring ecstasy Tristan has in store for her, all will be revealed\u2026<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

He scooted down and trapped her legs. \u201cPeter\u2019s on the main deck with the other men.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a child and proved it by helping you escape.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis wasn\u2019t his doing, and you\u2019ve no reason to fear for his safety. I have James, my quartermaster, looking after him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA bloody pirate, you mean. The same as you. Perhaps even worse than you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo. James is a good man.\u201d A haunted look touched Tristan\u2019s features before he shook off whatever had troubled him and became casual. \u201cHe saved my life. He\u2019ll take great care to watch your brother.\u201d<\/p>\n

Diana wanted to retort but couldn\u2019t reconcile her indignation with Tristan\u2019s previous anguish and the mean scratches she\u2019d left on his cheek. Dried blood had gone black, the surrounding skin swollen and red. \u201cWhat do you mean he saved your life?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJust that, ask no more for I\u2019ll give you no other answer.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only thing I want from you is my freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n

He stroked her wrists. \u201cYou want the same as me.\u201d<\/p>\n

She pushed against him, straining with the effort.<\/p>\n

He tightened his grip, proving she wasn\u2019t a match for his strength. If he chose to take her now, she\u2019d have no choice except to allow him what he willed.<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t beg. Wouldn\u2019t. Not to him or any man, including Bishop. They could conquer her body but not her spirit, never her heart. Reconciled to her fate, she grew limp as she could, pulse racing. \u201cTake what you\u2019ve come for and be quick about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI shan\u2019t be quick, Diana. With you, I\u2019ll never be quick.\u201d<\/p>\n
