Book Description

Wealthy, beautiful and still unwed, Lady Katherine Sedgewick is the most sought-after woman on Barbados – and the most heartbroken. Six years after the death of her best friend Daniel at the hands of blood-thirsty pirates, she finds herself faced with a difficult choice. She can return to England and seek a boring husband or remain on the island and hope she does not fall victim to Lord Wilds, an odious man who desires Katherine for his mistress – and refuses to take no for an answer! One of the most feared pirates in the West Indies, Midnight Jack is not the sort of man anyone wishes to defy. He’s clever, cunning, and when he sees something – or someone – he desires, he refuses to allow anything to stand in his way of obtaining it. Now, he has set his sights on Katherine, but he’s not the only one who wants to possess her. There are others who would have the beauty for themselves, but Jack isn’t a man who likes to share. After kidnapping Katherine, Jack brings her aboard his ship, The Darkness, though he has no idea what he’s going to do with her. He simply wants her – badly. However, Jack is also playing a very dangerous game. Can he keep Katherine from being kidnapped again by other pirates and, more importantly, can he convince her that it’s possible to desire more than one man in a lifetime? Is it hot? Yes, it is! Please be advised that this 87,000-word novel is written in the true spirit of pirates, including “salty” language that would be historically appropriate for that era. It is NOT a “sweet and clean romance” and is intended for those seeking a hotter and sexier read while still looking for a romantic happily ever after. This novel is not appropriate for younger audiences.
