Can childhood sweethearts find their way back together with pirates, intrigue, and an ocean between them?
Samuel Vargas has been in love with Georgia Ann Cooper since their youth. But so has his brother, who already has the means and stature in society to support her. While Samuel can't compete with his brother's elegance, he can do what he does best-sailing and sword-fighting. He's determined to make his fortune as a privateer and prove he can provide a secure future for Georgia Ann...if only she'll wait for him.
Georgia Ann Cooper's heart races when she thinks of Samuel Vargas, even while his brother-a dashing lawyer and perfect gentleman- is clearly the better choice. When Samuel heads off for the high seas, should she give in and marry the man she doesn't love? Maybe it's time for her to seek an adventure of her own...
But danger lurks on the high seas. When Georgia Ann's ship faces the unthinkable, Samuel must fight his way through pirates, slave traders, and the sultan of Tripoli to rescue the woman he loves...or die trying.
