Tall and strikingly handsome, Adam Trent could tempt any woman, especially in his secret disguise as the swashbuckling Captain Spectre. But when this daring buccaneer wagers a seductive campaign against a beauty whose passion matches his own, he’s not prepared for what awaits him…
WINNING HER HOME WAS EASY
Throwing a young woman out of her home is hardly decent behavior—even for a pirate. But when Adam Trent wins the Ducharme plantation in a card game, he knows it’s the perfect base for a covert scheme of revenge in which he sails the bayous as Captain Spectre. Adam agrees to let Lianne Ducharme stay until she comes of age—a decision he soon regrets. For Lianne fascinates him, and Adam cannot afford the distraction…
WINNING HER LOVE COULD COST HIM EVERYTHING
Too
bad that the most virile man Lianne Ducharme has ever met is also the most
infuriating. With no choice but to stay at Belle Arbor as his ‘guest’, Lianne
gradually yields to her own desires. But there is far more to Adam than Lianne
knows. And succumbing to a pirate’s promise of bliss could be the surest path
to heartbreak…
Excerpt One:
Adam
determinedly immersed himself in plantation business. He gave strict orders
that he was not to be interrupted. He continued his work on the ledgers until
his eyes grew tired, and when he checked the time, he was pleased to find it
was near midnight.
Only then, when
he was too exhausted to continue, did he allow his thoughts to dwell on his
real reason for staying locked in the study for so long. Lianne… Adam’s gaze
drifted to the loveseat where they’d lain together in a passionate embrace the
night before, and he felt the heat rise in his body again in remembrance. In
frustration, he wondered what it would take to make him immune to her. Here he
was, bone-weary and worn out, and yet just the thought of having her filled him
with desire.
Adam shook his
head in confusion. She’d made it clear the night before how she felt about him.
He knew the best thing to do was to avoid her. Out of sight, out of mind – he
hoped.
Adam fought
down the need to go to his marriage bed. Instead, he sought out the barren
comfort of the loveseat for his night’s rest. It seemed an eternity to him
before dawn lightened the eastern sky. He rose from his broken sleep, eager to
leave the house before Lianne awoke.
Adam tread
softly upstairs to their bedroom to get the clothing he needed. He entered the
room quietly and was glad to find Lianne was asleep. He gathered what he needed
and made an effort not to look at her, but when his gaze fell upon her, he
froze. His breathing grew ragged as he took in her gentle beauty. He almost
reached out to touch her, but stopped in time, silently cursing himself. He
backed from the room and a short while later he left the house. He didn’t know
how much longer he could remain in such close quarters with Lianne and keep
from making love to her. Resolved to working out his restlessness through hard
physical labor, Adam rode out to the fields, intending to spend the entire day
there.
