Mistaken for a harlot and now captive aboard a famous pirate ship-does Emily Foster have any options?

Emma Foster wasn't a brothel girl, far from it. When she's mistaken for one she finds herself gagged, knocked unconscious, and dragged aboard the infamous pirate ship, The Floriblanca, captained by the fearsome and notorious Gasparilla. He intends to auction her off in Captiva, but he'll have to get her there first.

A feisty spitfire with a duty to her dying father, Emma isn't about to be snatched away from her home and everything she loves without a fight.

When she wakes inside the ship's belly, she makes sure her objections are made loud and clear-and that noise brings attention. The first man on scene is the captain himself, and with him he brings warm memories of a too-brief encounter on the cobblestone streets of Philadelphia.

Try as she might to despise her captor, subtle flirtation erupts into a burning electricity, becoming far too intense to ignore. She doesn't know what to think, but she knows one thing for certain: she didn't come here by choice. She was a captive.

And in the face of that, does anything else really matter?
