About the book:
Rayna de La
Roche once lived a privileged life of a Spanish royal until her brother dragged
her to America. In order to return to Spain, she must find a hidden treasure
somewhere in New Orleans. She pairs up with a rugged American mercenary, whose
mere touch unleashes her deepest desire.
Captain
Zachary Nash has been accused of a murder he did not commit. On the run, he’s
hired to protect Rayna. As much as he wants her, Zach cannot hope to have her,
for she sees him as a common criminal. But keeping his hands off of her while
they hunt down the treasure may be his toughest task yet. As the passion
sizzles between the royal and the captain, they’ll have to decide if the
treasure is more important than love…
A
PIRATE'S REVENGE EXCERPT
He
turned toward his rescuer. “Ah, the princess pretends to sleep.”
“Sí,
seems I have to sleep light these days.” She released the hammer of her pistol
and hung it on her brace. “I have a magical knight. Sometimes you see him,
sometimes you don’t.”
“But
you did not sleep. Why?”
“Because
I could not with a man in my room.” She sounded irritated, like she really had
sacrificed sleep.
“For
some reason, I don’t believe that was the first time you’ve had a man in your
room.” He didn’t know what made him say that, except seeing her in those
formfitting clothes reminded him of every time he had stood too near to her,
touched her, and had to deny his feelings of wanting her. The days and nights
of watching her from afar, in Cadiz, on Donato’s ship, and now here, she was
the most desirable woman he’d ever seen.
“I
amend, señor.” This time the princess laughed. “The first time I had a strange
man in my room who was not sharing my bed.”
“You’ve
had men share your bed.” He stated rather than asked because he was curious,
having suspected the woman was…experienced. But hearing her say it niggled
beneath his skin with just a tiny nip of jealously. To sleep in her bed, how
would a man earn that right?
A
smile arrested her entire beautiful face. “Again, a position you’ll never
enjoy.”
He
stopped walking beside her. He shouldn’t care, and knowing the Roches like he
did, why would he be in the least bit curious? “Because I’m an American and
you’re royalty?”
She
honored his halt with a spin of her own, facing him.
“Capitán,”
she began in that thick Spanish accent. “I could have any man I desire. I have
been bedded by kings, princes, dukes, and marquises. Why would I choose a
barbaric common American?”
Maybe
it was her upturned face catching the moonlight that enticed him, or the slight
curve to her lips that interested him, but it was the deep lust he saw in her
eyes that made him reckless.
“Because
you want to.” He snagged her wrist, twisted it behind her back and brought her
flush against his chest. He could feel her breathing. Her breasts pushed
against his body with every inhalation in an age-old rhythm. Her lips parted
slightly. He caught the flicker of her tongue as she moistened her
lips—anticipating.
