A sizzling talent never before published in the U.S., Cheryl Sawyer delivers an epic that explodes with passion, intrigue, and war. From the pristine beaches of the Caribbean islands to the colorful streets of New Orleans, Siren cuts through waves of high-seas adventure, desperate desire, and political intrigue-and will leave readers breathless in its wake.

“We are credited with a fleet that Edward Teach himself would have given his black beard and liver to assemble. You are depicted with sea snakes in your hair and a voice like Circe’s, that has drawn me to a thousand crimes. And when we couple it is on the ocean bed, amongst Spanish bullion strewn with the skulls of the drowned, their eye sockets bulging with emeralds and rubies.”

Such is Jean Laffite’s ironical warning to privateer Léonore Roncival. But the danger is real, and more intimate than either dares to admit.

They are drawn together by a blazing affair of the heart, yet they stand opposed in a dramatic struggle when the United States take on Britain in the War of 1812. This breathtaking novel sweeps from the coral cays of the Caribbean to wealthy and extravagant New Orleans. It is the story of freebooter Léonore Roncival and the legendary pirate, Jean Laffite. A story of desire and possession, of warships and islands, and the treacherous reefs that lie between.

A story where the most dangerous battle of all is fought within the stronghold of the heart.
