Kate Winthrop is a spoiled rich girl who grew up fast when her ex-husband took her for everything she had. She is hurt and furious that she was so deceived by a man who did not really love her. She wants revenge and puts her plans in place. With the mission completed she decides she should go on vacation to let her ex-husband calm down before she has to face him again. Upon her arrival at the "cruise ship" she is shocked to learn that it is not the big yacht she thought it would be. She has no choice but to get on the boat with the handsome captain and try to enjoy herself. She is shocked to her toes by the burning passion that the captain elicits from her and is determined to deny that passion because of the secrets she is keeping from him. But when someone breaks onto the boat, she knows she must trust Cole and tell him the truth of what she did. Will Kate open her battered heart to the only man who truly loves her? Or will her deceit cause her another broken heart?

Cole hunter is the sexy captain of a boat that takes people on cruises around the islands. He is a broken man in search of the daughter his ex-wife is hiding away from him. He left his job as a corporate attorney to spend his time searching for his little girl. He is a bitter man who does not trust women. But when the sexy Kate shows up on his boat, he finds himself attracted to her. He also knows that she is hiding something from him and knows he must deny the sizzling passion that burns between them. Will Cole let the walls around his heart crumble to allow Kate's love help heal his broken heart? Or will the truth of her indiscretions be too much and cause him to lose the only real lead he has on his daughter's whereabouts?

Within the pages of A WOMAN WITH SECRETS you will find a powerful love story laced with treachery, deceit and old wounds that will not heal. Ms. Cooper pens another enchanting tale that will leave you breathless as you are turning the pages quickly. This enchanting tale is weaved with passion, humor, broken hearts and a commanding love that will have your heart soaring and cheering for a happily ever after love. Kate is strong-willed, passionate and suffers a bruised heart. Cole is sexy, stubborn and also suffers a bruised heart. My heart ached for their pain and soared when two hearts became one. The secondary characters are vibrant, easy to love and added a lot of pizzazz to the gripping plot. I look forward to reading more of Ms. Cooper's work!

SUMMARY

Kate Winthrop's sizable inheritance was stolen by her ex- husband. So she does what any wronged woman would—she gets even. When she breaks in to his empty house, she stumbles onto a large sum of her money. She takes it and boards a boat destined for the Caribbean. All Kate wants is a place to hide. She doesn't expect the other passengers to become friends, and she certainly doesn't expect to fall in love with the ship's captain, Cole Hunter.

Although Cole seems to return her feelings, he has a tough time trusting, since he's also been betrayed by an ex. But secrets can be hard to hide, and they could ruin everything between Cole and Kate.
