Two paths lay before Tessa Monroe as she arrives in colonial St. Kitts with her rescuer, the rogue pirate Nicholas Holladay. Everything should be perfect, but her worlds are colliding. In the spellbinding sequel to Oceanswept, Tessa finds a tempting new future with a handsome baron unfolding before her on sunny St. Kitts while Nicholas discovers that the past he was so eager to leave behind isn't quite through with him yet.

Rescued by a passing ship, Tessa's grief soon turns to terror as she realizes she isn't a passenger - she's a captive. With a future of slavery in the offing, Tessa must rely on Nicholas Holladay, a charismatic sailor with uncertain loyalties. Trusting him could mean Tessa's freedom - or a fate worse than death.
