After a fire burns down their home, motherless Charlie Sinclair is taken aboard his father’s ship at the age of six. Over the years, he works his way up to the rank of second mate. But Charlie has a secret. He’s not the captain’s son … she’s his daughter and she’s tough and as crude as any sailor. But she is completely ignorant about life on land. She longs for love, but knows she can never find love unless she's willing to give up her life.
With a jagged scar slashing across his once handsome face, Privateer Capt. Jackson Bloodworthy, has given up all hope of finding love when Charlie Sinclair is abandoned by her shipmates aboard his ship. He soon discovers her secret and is amazed that when she looks at him, she does not see his disfigurement. To announce to his crew Charlie is under his protection, Jackson kisses her in front of the men, making her knees weak and the world fade away. Society would have dictated that she slap him for taking such liberties but Charlie knows nothing about land-rules--she only knows what her heart feels and doesn’t understand that his restraint is not because he doesn’t want her, it’s because he doesn’t want to take advantage of her naiveté.
This is a full-length novel. It contains graphic love scenes.
