His Sultry Captor

Miss Florentia Parker is convinced that Archer Grindstone, the Earl of Thanefield is responsible for the death of her beloved betrothed, Jonathan Wilden, and that he is involved with a notorious press gang. She sets out on a personal vendetta of revenge with the help of her widowed friend, Mrs. Anna Shapley. The goal: abduct the earl until he changes his wicked ways. Florentia succeeds in her objective – but there's one little problem… Archer has been undercover, working with the Home Office to put an end to the press gang's rule. He's managed to earn their regard, but he has yet to meet the ruthless leader. He's close to completing his mission when a sultry lady temporarily distracts him. When he wakes up as her captive, he isn't sure what to think. However, when the tables turn and she is suddenly dependent upon him for her safety, he can't believe his good fortune, because although she despises him, the attraction is undeniable.
