Operating in opposition to the British Crown, Dominic Le Veq considers it his duty as well as his pleasure to capture and raid ships for profit. When he encounters Clare Sullivan, he can't resist the urge to capture her too. At first afraid of her abductor, Clare, a slave, is determined to survive and to somehow return to her Virginia home. However, she quickly learns there is much more to Dominic than their initial meeting suggests. And he offers her what may be her only chance at freedomβin exchange for herself.
CAPTURED was my first Beverly Jenkins' novel. Although well acquainted with Ms. Jenkins and the respect she receives for
She was the most irresistible treasure of all . . .
Dominic LeVeq, the most notorious privateer ever to
command the high seas, has just captured a coveted prize: a
British frigate. On a dangerous mission against the Crown,
Dominic should be thinking only of his ship's safety. But
the rebel captain is utterly entranced by Clare Sullivan,
the stunning slave on board. Consumed by desire, desperate
to have her, Dominic offers Clare her freedom in exchange
for a forbidden night in his bedβa night he assures her will
be most pleasureable indeed.
Clare believes that
Dominic is nothing more than a seductive rogue used to
getting what he wants. But she too feels a tantalizing
passion between them, and so she submits to just one night
of bliss. She'll soon realize that Dominic has captured more
than her body. He's captured her heart . . . and she doesn't
want him to ever let go.
