Flame Against the Wind

Ravishing, violet-eyed Margaret Brandon, sole heiress to a sprawling, lavish St. Croix plantation, had everything she ever dreamed of wanting...until her elegant English cousin arrived, determined to take her in marriage and to secure her fortune for his own ruthless ends. Escaping under cover of darkness, Margaret ran -- straight into the powerful arms of the notorious Adam Gordon, island hero, legendary privateer, who offered safety where she could find no other. Spirited aboard his ship, the Venture, bound for Europe, she was prisoner of a new fate. For her protector on the raging, war-torn seas was also her jailer -- a green-eyed sea devil who had already plundered her heart and vowed never to set her free!
