A kidnapping born of vengeance, a love neither expected—can he resist the woman who turns his world upside down?

Mobs are threatening Lady Sarah Emiline Langston's family because of her corrupt uncle. She must go into hiding, so her father sends her far away to his friend's country estate. In order to keep her identity a secret, she switches roles with her servant and calls herself a lady's companion. Complications arise when Emiline meets the very handsome man, and she suddenly wants him to look at her as a real woman, not a servant.

Captain Hawk's ship is almost captured, and this time it was too close. As a pirate, Broderick Worthington lives a double life, and now he and his crew need to stay low for a few months to keep the men looking for them away. During his stay at his aunt and uncle's estate, he meets the enemy's niece. Because she doesn't know who Broderick is, he will become close to her to see if she knows any more of her uncle's secrets. But the beauty of her companion, Miss Emmie, captures his attention, and her quirky personality keeps him wanting more.
