The Captain's Ransom
Description
He follows every rule. She breaks every boundary. Their collision will scandalize the Caribbean.
Captain Jean-Luc Dubois is a man of precision. As a former French Naval officer turned wealthy merchant, his life is a perfectly charted map of schedules, silence, and solitude. He has no patience for chaos, and certainly no patience for the infuriating, vibrant woman he discovers hiding in his cargo hold.
Lady Felicity "Flick" Sinclair is running for her life. To escape a forced marriage to a cruel English lord, she stows away on the first ship leaving port?unfortunately, it belongs to the stiffest man on the seven seas.
When they arrive in Nassau, Jean-Luc intends to deport her immediately. But when Flick reveals the nightmare waiting for her in England, his honor traps him. He agrees to hide her in his pristine villa?a decision he instantly regrets. Flick disrupts his quiet meals, stains his rugs with paint, and asks questions that pry open the old wounds of his heart.
But as Flick brings color to Jean-Luc's gray world, a ruthlessly efficient tracker closes in. With her freedom on the line, the Captain who never breaks a rule must decide: will he keep his perfect reputation, or will he pay the ultimate price to save the woman who taught him how to live?
