SummaryJohanna Lindsey sweeps readers into the privileged world
of English aristocrats and the exotic haunts of Caribbean
treasure hunters in a new novel of passion and romantic
adventure featuring the incomparable Malorysa family
of dashing rogues, spirited ladies, and rakehell
adventurers. Now American rogue Drew Anderson meets his
match when his brother-in-law James Malory introduces the
daughter of a pirate to London society.
Devastated by her mother's death, eighteen-year-old
Gabrielle Brooks sets sail from England to a Caribbean
island in search of her estranged father. But instead of
encountering a distinguished merchant ship's captain, she
discovers her father has become a pirate! After spending
three wonderful years sailing and treasure hunting with him,
Gabrielle is dismayed when her father decides she must
return to London to find a proper husband. His old friend
James Malory will sponsor her in polite society.
In London, Gabrielle is escorted to balls and parties by
James Malory's wife, Georgina, and her brother, Drew
Anderson, a dashing American sea captain who is visiting.
Though drawn to Gabrielle's fiery beauty, Drew, a fun-loving
rogue, wants nothing to do with a young woman hunting for a
husband. Incensed by Drew's indifference, Gabrielle is
determined to win his attentions. But when Drew embroils her
in a scandal the night before he's to sail back to America,
Gabrielle vows revenge. Enlisting the help of her father's
pirate cronies, Gabrielle commandeers Drew's ship and takes
him prisoner. But as passion runs high on their sea voyage,
it becomes difficult to tell who is truly the captor and who
is the captive.
With the humor, lovable characters, and romantic intensity
that have distinguished Johanna Lindsey's seven previous
Malory novels and placed them in the ranks of the best-loved
and most widely read romantic novels of our time, Captive of
My Desires tells a passionate love story that will capture
your heart and never let go....
