Summary: Independent and inquisitive, Meg Barratt wants nothing to do with any stifling society marriage. Meg yearns for the kind of passion that exists only in books -- until a violent storm lands her on the high seas with the most dangerous and seductive man she's ever encountered ... or imagined. For Cosimo, women are objects, to be manipulated for business or pleasure ... sometimes both. But when the seafaring assassin accidentally kidnaps Meg on his latest mission, he must reconsider his position. Recruiting his unsuspecting captive for the danger ahead is far more challenging than he expected -- and far more seductive.
