A Brother's Honor (Shadow of the Bastille)

Rating:
Summary: High adventure on the high seas.
Review: Dominic St. Clair has just captured an American ship. Its crew is being delivered to the French authorities in Calais, and its holding will be sold to raise money for the French efforts against the English. Imagine Dominic's surprise to discover that Captain Arthur Fitzgerald's daughter had left without an apparent care for her safety or virtue. When Dominic first sees her, he decides that she is his prize alone. Unfortunately Abigail Fitzgerald seems to be immune to his charm and unappreciative of his efforts to protect her from the other men on board. Abigail doesn't understand why her father was sailing so close to England with a cargo of weapons. Nor did she understand his reasons for leaving her to the mercies of Captain Dominic St. Clair, either. His honeyed words and tender caresses confuse her, but she will not share the bed of the man who attacked her father's ship. Her father's crew stages a mutiny, and soon the ship goes down with all hands save herself and Dominic.. Jo Ann Ferguson is widely known for her romantic tales of adventure, and this latest release is no exception.
