Only when she regains consciousness-naked and unwittingly trapped on an unknown ship- does she discover she owes her life to a stranger who is clearly not a gentleman. Wickedly handsome, disturbingly mysterious, the grey-eyed master of the Wind Dancer admits he makes his living from the sea. But it doesn't take long for Olivia to realize the rogue who'd so intimately tended to her wounds is a brash pirate whose scooner is bearing down on a Spanish galleon. She knows she should be appalled. Instead Olivia is shockingly entranced... and recklessly attracted to the outlaw whose gaze holds both challenge and invitation. Anthony Caxton has known from the first moment that Olivia Granville is no ordinary woman. But who'd have thought that the sheltered daughter of a marquis would have a genuine taste for piracy? Delighted by her response, teased by her beauty, he welcomes her as the newest of his crew, confident that it is only a matter of time before he wins her surrender. Yet even as Olivia welcomes his embrace, she remains unaware that Anthony is harbouring a devastating secret...one that will lead them to heartache, scandal and betrayal. For Anthony is much more than a common pirate. He is the mastermind behind a perilous plot od royal intrigue that could change the course of history. And in this enterprise his opponent is none other than Cato Grenville...Olivia's father. Anthony knows the success of his scheme- and his very life- depends on minute planning, on anticipating every possible difficulty. But he never imagined that he would fall inlove with the daughter of his most formidable enemy. And he never dreamed that the dangerous game he was playing would leave Olivia vulnerable to the attentions of a cunning villian - one who wants to posses the dark-haired temptress almost as much as he wants to see Anthony Caxton hang. - book jacket
