Historical
1775, Boston Harbor. James Sparhawk, Master and Commander in the British Navy, knows trouble when he sees it. The ship heโs boarded is carrying ammunition and goldโฆinto a country on the knifeโs edge of war. Sparhawkโs duty is clear: confiscate the cargo, impound the vessel and seize the crew. But when one of the shipโs boys turns out to be a lovely girl, with a loaded pistol and dead-shot aim, Sparhawk finds himself held hostage aboard a Rebel privateer. Sarah Ward never set out to break the law. Before Boston became a powder keg, she was poised to escape the stigma of being a notorious pirateโs daughter by wedding Micah Wild, one of Salemโs most successful merchants. Then a Patriot mob destroyed her fortune and Wild played her false by marrying her best friend and smuggling a chest of Rebel gold aboard her familyโs ship. Now branded a pirate herself, Sarah will do what she must to secure her familyโs safety and her own future. Even if that means taking part in the cat and mouse game unfolding in Boston Harbor, the desperate naval fight between British and Rebel forces for the materiel of warโand pitting herself against James Sparhawk, the one man she cannot resist.
