The Devil’s Prisoner
ByPublisher Description
Between danger and desire, a relentless pirate and a brave young woman defy fate… and the heart.
Jack Farrel, known as the Devil of the seas, has sworn to recover the treasure stolen from his captain, the fearsome Henry Morgan. But what he finds leaves him unsettled: the thief is nothing more than a bold young woman who claims she knows nothing about the loot. Jack does not believe in her innocence, so he makes the only possible choice: to take her prisoner until she confesses the truth.
Anne never imagined her quiet life would change in an instant. Now she is trapped aboard a pirate ship, watched over by a man who is as dangerous as he is captivating. She does not fear Jack's sword, but she does fear the overwhelming emotions he awakens in her. His burning gaze, his closeness, the way he challenges and torments her… every moment at his side is a risk to her freedom and to her heart.
On the open sea, amid storms and secrets, passion ignites like a fire that cannot be ignored. Jack knows that wanting her is a mistake, but Anne tempts him like no other woman ever has. As fate pulls them between duty and love, they will both discover that there are treasures more valuable than gold… and that surrendering to passion may be the greatest adventure of all.
A short novel with concentrated intensity, perfect for devouring in an afternoon.
