He wants revenge.


Captain Colt finds treasure far more valuable than gold when he invades a Carolina settlement, demanding tribute. He finds the girl who slipped through his grasp two years ago and he relishes the opportunity to punish her for what she's done...
Though the strain in his breeches makes it unclear which of them is suffering more from the reunion.


She wants justice.


Charlotte cannot fathom why Colt the Cruel would demand her as payment for not attacking their fledgling settlement. But probing the fathomless depths of her mind won't help uncover the answer because Charlotte has no memory of her past. Submitting to Colt's demand might help her learn how she washed ashore without a stitch of clothing that fateful day. And while she's aboard the ship, Charlotte vows to use her time as Colt's captive to bring down his band of pirates from the inside...
Though the persistent ache between her legs whenever the captain appears distracts her from the righteous cause.


The pirate and the prisoner.
Each wants to protect a vulnerable heart... and a dark secret.
