Caress and Conquer

the long version

CAPTIVE OF PASSION Lovely, young, and poverty-stricken, Amanda Prescott was forced to support herself and her invalid mother any way she could. Cast into prison for stealing, she was horrified to learn that she would be transported to the American Colonies to serve her term as an indentured servant. Her master turned out to be none other than dashing plantation owner, Tony Brandt, the very man who had unwittingly caused Amanda's downfall. Yet from their first passionate embrace, Amanda knew her heart would belong to him forever. Despite the differences in their stations, Tony was determined to wed her. But his jealous mistress had other plans. Soon Amanda found herself held captive by another's desire, and only Tony's consuming love could win her freedom.
