    About this ebook

    The Gulf of Mexico, 1702: When pirates of the square-rigger Original Sin steal ashore to abduct a doctor to tend to their wounded, they end up settling for the doctor's attractive fiancée—Celia Pierce, the town seamstress.

    Together with Gayle Malvern, daughter of wounded pirate captain Madman Malvern, Celia becomes a reluctant participant in an unexpectedly thrilling journey through the Caribbean. For Gayle, Celia's presence is at first a welcome and shapely distraction, but as her attraction to the seamstress deepens, she realizes that Celia comes to mean more to her than is almost cerntainly prudent. As Celia and Gayle navigate the perilous territories of gypsies, prostitutes, mercenaries, and slave-traders, they forge a partnership born of necessity that Gayle soon hopes will veer away from insurmountable danger—and instead detour directly to her bed.

    Colette Moody

    Colette Moody has long been an avid bibliophile and fan of history (and swashbuckling). When she isn’t doing research or crafting scenes for her next romp of a novel, she can be found doing one or more of the following: trying to best her high score on Wii Tennis; sequestered in the kitchen eagerly trying to prove that everything DOES taste better with bacon; meticulously recreating classic cocktails from the 30s and 40s; or planning her next trip to Disneyland. While waiting to be generously (and inexplicably) remembered in some wealthy stranger’s will, she begrudgingly bides her time as a corporate lackey, working for the man. She lives in Southeastern Virginia with her beloved dog and her equally Wii-addicted partner.

      Great fun with some adventure, romance, and loads of wonderfully written humor!
    • 5/5
      Fun, fun read! A reverse bodice-ripper** featuring a colorful cast of one dashing captain, a horde of repulsive pirates and quite a handful of fetching wenches. Lots of swashbuckling action on the high seas, tons of double-entendres, and the most scurrilous pre-fight insults pirates can muster. And of course, no pirate book is complete without the treasure hunt. If you're looking for fun, action, adventure, romance and stormy sex (read it urself ;) ), this book has it all.

      **the bodice wearer was the ripper :)
