Emma Foster wasn’t a brothel girl, far from it. When she's mistaken for one she finds herself gagged, knocked unconscious, and dragged aboard the infamous pirate ship, The Floriblanca, captained by the fearsome and notorious Gasparilla. He intends to auction her off in Captiva, but he'll have to get her there first. A feisty spitfire with a duty to her dying father, Emma isn't about to be snatched away from her home and everything she loves without a fight. When she wakes inside the ship's belly, she makes sure her objections are made loud and clear—and that noise brings attention. The first man on scene is the captain himself, and with him he brings warm memories of a too-brief encounter on the cobblestone streets of Philadelphia. Try as she might to despise her captor, subtle flirtation erupts into a burning electricity, becoming far too intense to ignore. She doesn't know what to think, but she knows one thing for certain: she didn’t come here by choice. She was a captive. And in the face of that, does anything else really matter?

"Here is the book lover's literary tour of Florida, an exhaustive survey of writers, books, and literary sites in every part of the state. The state is divided into ten areas and each one is described from a literary point of view. You will learn what authors lived in or wrote about a place, which books describe the place, what important movies were made there, even the literary trivia which the true Florida book lover will want to know. You can use the book as a travel guide to a new way to see the state, as an armchair guide to a better understanding of our literary heritage, or as a guide to what to read next time you head to a bookstore or library."--Publisher.
