From the award-winning author of Sea Change, Castaway Dreams, and The Pirate's Secret Baby: Hijacking an Englishman from a brothel is all in a day's work for Captain Mattie St. Armand. She needs protective coloration, and a naïve (and expendable) white man will keep the eyes of the authorities off her as she smuggles slaves from the Florida Territory to freedom in the Bahamas. Oliver Woodruff wanted a spot of travel in the Caribbean before he settled down, but he never expected "Marauding Mattie." He'll help her, but he knows there's no place in his world for the bastard daughter of a pirate and a freedwoman. As Mattie trains him for their ruse, she comes to realize he's a man she can turn to for support and companionship, and Oliver grows to love the commanding and daring woman who refuses to fit society's mold... but both are sure their relationship is doomed by society's taboos. It will take danger and adventure (and Roscoe the parrot) to convince them that the passion between them is more than an island fantasy.

Historical romance, Regency eraAlexander Murray knows one cannot exist without a brain, yet Daphne Farnham may be the exception. Her head contains nothing but rainbows, shoes, bonnets, pink frills and butterflies. Even her fluffy dog is useless. But the war with Napoleon is finally over and the surgeon is sure he can put up with a couple of months of the cloth-headed chit until they reach England.Did that naval officer have his sense of humor surgically removed? It is bad enough Alexander Murray has no fashion sensibilities at all, never smiles at her like other men do, and doesn't adore her darling pup Pompom. He had the gall to proclaim her "useless" when everyone knows it's Daphne Farnham who's the best at picking out just the right ensemble for any social occasion. Fortunately, she only has to put up with the sour Scotsman until they reach England.But when their ship goes down, the dour doctor (after a fashion), the dizzy damsel (more or less) and the darling (and potentially delicious) doggy are about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime as unlikely companions, castaway on a desert island. One of them may have fleas, but it's the two humans who will find themselves wanting to scratch a certain itch.

Christine Sanders of St. Augustine in Territorial Florida is a runaway wife who believes the best way to live comfortably on her own is to turn pirate and rob a man with money. And the perfect man to rob is her own husband, Justin Delerue, Lord Smithton, especially since he got rich by marrying her against her will and taking her inheritance! 
Pirate's Price is a rollicking tale of marriage and mayhem, gender confusion and piracy. With the help of her godfather Julius Davies, himself a retired pirate with a fondness for young sailors, Christine puts together a gay, er, jolly crew and takes to the seas as Captain Christopher Daniels. It doesn't take long for the dread pirate Daniels to become a force to be reckoned with in Florida's sealanes, especially for ships owned by DelerueSanders Shipping. 
But when Smithton himself is taken captive and held hostage by Daniels and the crew of the Tigress, he has a different plan for his runaway pirate bride, and could very well end up stealing something from her-her heart.

It's a grand adventure, just as she's always dreamed-until her ship is boarded by the crew of the Zephyr. Amanda's plans for her future do not include large, hairy, uncouth pirates. Morgan Roberts has his work cut out for him, but he's prepared to try his most piratical tricks if it will convince the luscious widow to become Captain Sinister's Lady.
