Book Description

All young Bethlyn Talbot had wanted when she set sail for the colonies was to track down the husband she'd been forced to wed as a child. She was only 14 years old. Her husband was forced to wed her to gain his inheritence. As soon as the wedding was over, he left her to live with his aunt and sailed back to America where he had his shipping business. Bethlyn wanted a real marriage or an anulment to finally get on with her life. Then her ship was attacked by the infamous privateer "Hawk" and the honey-haired prisoner had to think of how to escape the brash buccaneer. But with his magnetic personality and towering physique, Bethlyn was more trapped than had she been bound in chains. For after years of marriage to a complete stranger, the yearning, passionate woman was ripe for romance with the phantom of the seas! With his dangerous life and spirit of adventure, the hot-blooded Hawk never hesitated to indulge in a brief, torrid love affair. And when he saw the curvaceous beauty aboard the ship he was raiding, Hawk decided then and there he'd claim her before nightfall. Then the lightskirt pretended maidenly virtue, and the aroused male became even lustier...only to discover she'd been telling the truth. Past the point of no return, Hawk commanded Bethlyn, for this voyage only, to submit to his will as the captain's mistress, and without a ring or preacher to be the PIRATE'S BRIDE.
