For five pounds, the convict was hers. Though Cassie hated
the slave trade,
her Virginia plantation demanded the labor, and she knew
the fevered man
would surely die if she left him. But as his wounds healed
and his muscled
chest bronzed from the sun, Cassie realized Cole Braden was
far more
dangerous than his papers had indicated -- for he could
steal her breath
with a glance or lay siege to her senses with a touch.
Abducted, beaten and given a new name, Alec went from
master of an English
shipbuilding empire to fourteen years of indentured
servitude in the
American colonies. There, he was known as Cole Braden, a
convicted ravisher
and defiler of women. And while he longed to ravish the
auburn-haired beauty
who owned him, he knew his one hope of earning her love --
and his freedom
-- was to prove his true identity. Only then could he turn
the tables and
obtain his.. SWEET RELEASE.
