    About this ebook

    A classic love story from New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards.

    Lady Catherine Aldley was en route to London when pirates attacked her ship. Just in time, Captain Jonathan Hale rescued her from his own men, sweeping her into his arms, staking his claim on the pampered daughter of England's ambassador to Portugal. All Catherine had were her wits and the will to beat her captor at his own game. His searing kisses kindled unfamiliar passions, but she vowed to make him her prisoner of desire…

    He was a legendary pirate, daring, triumphant, free. Jonathan Hale never took captives and always escaped--until he saw the headstrong beauty he couldn't leave behind. She was fire and ice, a lady outraged, a tigress in his arms. Cathy refused to be treated like chattel, yet yielded to his sensual invasion as she conquered his body and soul. She made loving truly dangerous, exposing his deepest fears--and his mutinous heart…

    • 3/5
      Ok but predictable trashy romance of the rape and pillage variety - jon and cathy
    • 5/5
      Passion, wit and adventure! Everything a good story needs! Fab!
    • 2/5
      There’s an awful part where he holds Cathy’s head underwater…the “hero” man in this book is more than abusive. He is a pirate but that scene completely turned me off
    • 4/5
      This book immediately caught me with its passion and the intensity of the characters feelings. I could practically feel everything that the character was feeling, and it has everything to do with Ms.Karen being an amazing writer. Her way with words has a way of pulling you in...especially if you like romantic or melodrama books. All in all I definitely look forward to reading the books she's written so far with great interest.
    • 1/5
      Definitely not a romance story. This is some sick tale of Stockholm syndrome. Absolutely abominable. I got through to the seventh chapter and was just completely disgusted. I skipped to the last chapter just to see what became of this "hero" and "heroine". The only satisfying part was hearing that he was thrown in Newgate prison and beaten repeatedly. Bravo to that. do not read!
