Caledonian Privateer — Gail MacMillan

When a thief and a notorious privateer get together, there is no doubt sparks will fly. With a necklace that once belonged to Marie Antoinette hidden in her bodice and a pack of hounds at her heels, Emma Prescott flees from the prospect of a loathsome marriage. In the storm-blackened night, a dark-cloaked man on an ebony horse offers assistance, and Emma regards the gesture as a blessing, little knowing her fate will eventually be tied to that of an infamous privateer.
Eager to get back to London and his fiancée, to set sail for home, Captain Morgan Reynolds helps the mysterious runaway only because of his Highland hatred for her English pursuers...and something about the girl herself. But will Morgan and Emma ever learn to be honest with each other?
