A Heart's Masquerade

Romance and Adventure on the High Seas


Danger forces Catherine Amberly to disguise herself as a cabin boy on a privateer bound for the Caribbean. But the threats she left behind follow her into the heat of the tropics, where she must face her feelings for Captain Ransom Duprey.


Ransom has his own enemies—and suspicions about the beautiful young woman in the Barbados ballroom. Although they’ve never met, she seems to know him better than he does himself. And the more she denies him, the more determined he is to uncover all of her secrets...
