Catherine LeClerc had been rescued from peril in a Madagascar port by Danton Cristobal, King of the Pirates. She soon learned his story—that he was a Spanish Marquis stripped of his title, unfairly banished from his homeland, and sailing the seven seas on a quest to regain his honor. No humor lightened his handsome face, no happiness lit his silver-gray eyes. Everything about him was dark, deliberate, and dangerous. Except, Catherine suspected, the hidden kindness which led him to save her life and that of her child. Now, ensconced at his retreat on the exotic Isle of the Lost Souls, the beautiful young widow wondered at the twist of fate that had brought her together with an aristocrat-turned-buccaneer…to share his destiny, and to discover paradise in his arms. Though the world quaked at Danton’s name, Catherine sensed the goodness at war with his inner demons. She believed in him, yearned for him, and vowed to turn this hell-bent pirate around—with the radiant power of her love.
