High Seas Desire
by Mlyn Hurn

A few dances together, and Lord John Fitzpatrick has captured Lissa's heart. Soon London gossip whispers that, possibly due to a lady's honor, he's disappeared. So do Lissa's dreams. Saddened from the recent loss of her mother, Lissa sets sail for her home in Caribbean. The trip is peaceful until a sailor shouts "Captain Jack!" The pirate was bearing down on them faster than they could outrun him. Lissa switches clothing with her maid. The ploy could have worked, but when Cap'n Jack sees the wench at his feet, he immediately knows he has a problem. Instead of a serving girl, his captive is Lady Lissa Stilton. Fear of commitment caused him to desert London at the height of the Season, and the source of his fear now lies at his feet.

What should be a simple capture, plunder and release is suddenly complicated beyond his wildest dreams. Cap'n Jack, alias Lord John Fitzpatrick, captured a Stilton ship on purpose—those ships always carry the best goods to and from the Islands. Also, he knew Lord Peter Stilton's daughter was safe in London. Unsure of the right course, he takes Lissa as his captive...and his lover. After months at sea, her father finds them and orders Lissa on board his ship. The real adventure begins as they return to life in London and discover as much about their own self as they do each other. Just when Jack is sure he knows what will happen, Lissa turns his world upside down one more time.
