About this eBook
Lady Georgina Kirkpatrick defied her family, jilted her fiancé, and married the man she loved. But when her husband died at Waterloo, she was delivered right back into her father’s power . . .
Victory is sweet—but England’s triumph was Georgie’s rout. Now that she’s widowed, the loathsome marriage her father first arranged has simply been renegotiated. With neither money nor rights, and nowhere to flee, all she can do is cherish her last weeks of freedom. . . . Until a band of ruffians overtake her carriage and kidnap her. When she escapes in seaside Brighton and encounters her brother’s rather wild friend, Lord St. Just—whom she suspects aspires to be a pirate—she’s prepared to entertain more of his adventurous suggestions than usual . . .
St. Just knows his mind and his duty, and he loves a challenge. Helping a fair lady make her farewells to hoodlums suits his talents well. Within the hour he has Georgie, her lady’s maid—and her little dog too—sailing for his castle in Cornwall. Meanwhile, the lady’s entire family, her kidnappers, and her scheming intended are in pursuit. But as he and the indomitable Georgie grow closer, he begins to suspect that together they will prove a match for them all . . .

A delightul fast paced story full of great characters, intrigue, humor, engaging banter and the journey to an unexpected romance. Georgie had married for love against her father's wishes, but then her husband was killed in battle and she became a widow. Now she is again to be married to the the man her father originally wanted. But it seems not to be when she is kidnapped and then rescued by Robin Kerr, one of her brother's good friends. It seems a bumpy ride to the road to happiness, but is an adventure along the way you do not want to miss! I have really enjoyed this series so much!
