Virginia Brides

This pair of sizzling historical romances from the author of the Emerald Trilogy proves Virginia really is for lovers . . .
From Southern plantations to the Caribbean seas, Virginia Brides always say, “I do.”
Rapture in His Arms: Sold into slavery, Irish patriot Donovan Shay now sweats and toils on the exotic shores of a faraway land. When a rich Virginia planter and his alluring, aqua-eyed young bride, Jillian, claim him as their chattel, Donovan is consumed by a fiery hunger he can neither explain nor deny—and vows that Jillian will be his. After her father’s death, Jillian married for protection, not love. But one glimpse of her new servant—all bronze bodied and golden haired—is enough to undo her . . .
Pirate Hunter’s Mistress: Before meeting Marlee Stafford, Lark Arden’s only aspiration was to raise money for a new ship so he could pursue the pirate Manuel Silva, who kidnapped his fiancée. But when Lark assumes the identity of his recently deceased cousin and marries a wealthy Virginian maiden, he never expects that his blue-eyed proxy bride would tempt him beyond sanity. After sampling her sweet lips and fiery passions, how can he betray her? But Marlee is no fool. She won’t sign over her inheritance until she’s enticed her broad-shouldered baron into desiring only her . . .
