About the book
(The ninth book in the Malory Family series)
ON A WHIRLWIND ADVENTURE, SHOULD SHE SURRENDER TO HIS BOLD CHARMS?
When Sir Anthony Malory's young daughter is abducted from London's Hyde Park, her kidnapper's ransom note mistakenly falls into the hands of a Malory relative, the sea captain Boyd Anderson. Searching for the girl with Anthony, Boyd fully intends to make the foolhardy villain pay. But he hardly expects to find exquisite Katey Tyler, recently a passenger on his ship, at the center of the plot! Innocent Katey, who fled her dull Connecticut town in search of romance and adventure, is about to experience more excitement than she ever dreamed of now that she has caught the attentions of Boyd Anderson. For a multitude of surprises await Katey, from the startling truth about her own family, to the lengths a man will go to win the affections of a lady who has every reason to despise him-but who can't resist the seductive, impassioned love he offers.
