He loved the sea.
Rueben De'Loire aka Captain Cuff Blacque had it all: the fiercest ship on the open seas, a progressive island plantation and companionship when he chose it. He thought his life was complete - until he inadvertently saved the life of a severely beaten runaway slave and nursed her back to health.
As his ship sailed for his island home, Cuff fought the forbidden passion that grew between them but gave into the fire she caused deep in his soul every time he thought of her. As they got closer to home, Cuff had a new dilemma. Could he bring himself to let her go?
After being cruelly punished, Hanna wished for death, but the large man that rescued her vowed he was not going to allow her to die. While they indulged in their desire for one another, love was instant for Hanna, and she placed her tender heart in his hands.
Could the ex-pirate commit to anything other than his love for the sea?
