Eden's Pass

Love can blow even a true pirate off course. Finn Eden will do anything to escape a life of slavery on a Barbados sugar plantation. Even risk her life disguised as a cabin boy aboard a pirate ship, putting up with the drunken captain's slovenly habits. Then her patience nets her an unexpected opportunity: A ship of her own. Half the profits. And freedom. Too bad the captain conveniently left out a small detail; there's a price on his head. Captain Inigo Sebastiano is a ruthless pirate with a years-long score to settle with the man who raped and murdered his wife. The truce he's struck with the fiery Finn is uneasy in more ways than one, but his unsettling reaction to his new cabin "boy" is explained when he uncovers her true identity. Ever the gentleman pirate, he'll help his lovely new bedmate keep her secret. For now. When the time is right, it's a secret he'll use to his advantage. But the spitfire in his bed rekindles something in his heart he thought had died. As Inigo closes in on his quarry, he begins to wonder if Finn's freedom-and her trust-is a sacrifice he's willing to make.
