Wind Raven

the long version

A PERILOUS PASSAGEOrdered by the Prince Regent into the Caribbean, English sea captain and former privateer Jean Nicholas Powell has no time for women aboard the Wind Raven, especially not Tara McConnell. The impudent American demanded passage, and so she'll get more than she bargained for: Instead of a direct sail to Baltimore, she'll join his quest to investigate and neutralize the rampaging pirate Roberto Cofresi.But the hoyden thinks she can crew with his men! And though Nick bans her from the rigging he is captivated watching her lithe, luscious movements on deck. Facing high seas, storms, cutthroats and the endless unknown, he must always protect his ship, his passengers, his crew. But on this voyage, with this woman, there is a greater danger: to his heart.
