Passion's Price

FROM RECKLESS DESIRE...TO ETERNAL LOVE

On the eve of her marriage to a wealthy but vile duke, eighteen-year-old Jarina Hamilton cut off her hair, dressed herself as a boy, and stowed away on an American merchant ship.

Once discovered, her boyish disguise could not fool the hungry eyes of the ship's hard-drinking captain, Jared Cunningham once she was all woman -- and rightfully his.

Jarina was forced into a, scandalous bargain -- free passage to America ...in exchange for warming the wily captain's bed during the voyage. The cynical pact buys them both what they want...until Jared finds, the exquisite girl's luminous blue eyes haunting his dreams ... and Jarina discovers his touch has awakened something in her that she cannot fight or deny!
