Torn from England By An Impostor Husband, She Lost Her Innocence On The High Seas and Suffered the Torment of a Secret Love... Eager to escape her grandfather's hatred, high-spirited young Katherine Farley agreed to marry Julian Warwick, a stranger from across the sea.

Kit, the virile captain of a privateer whose mission was to prevent the British soldiers and arms from reaching the embattled colonies. Though she was shocked at Kit's deception, Katherine could not resist his fiery touch, giving her heart completely to the dashing impostor, though she feared that he did not reciprocate her love. But Charleston held an even greater torment for Katherine, when she met the real Julian Warwick -- and Rachel, Kit's ravishing fiancée!
