I’d gorge myself on the sight of your entire body if I could.” 1829, South Coast of England: The East India Company monopolizes trade between Britain and India, and won’t stand for anyone who tests their dominance. Brave privateers and smugglers with revenge on their minds, set course to sink the East India Company’s gunpowder monopoly. Ben Pedrick spied a stunning young woman on the beach years ago, but they were both too young, and she was far above his station. Visits to her town throughout the years leave him yearning for a woman he believes he can never have but will always desire. Never explaining why he’s kept his distance leads to assumptions that may deprive him of a woman who longs for him, too. Jemma Rowe’s mother was the Maharaja’s daughter until she married an Englishman serving in India for the East India Company. She’s never considered herself a princess since she’s a baronet's daughter. The young man with the shock of red hair she met on the beach remains a constant source of temptation and frustration until the night they’re thrown together, and they’re forced to admit a second chance at life means a second chance at love. With East India Company men, excise men, and privateers combing the shores, Ben and Jemma, along with their smuggler families, must continue their battle against the organization that’s stolen more than just Indian treasures from Jemma’s family. Immerse yourself in this STEAMY Regency novella love story set along England's southern coast and discover a diverse cast of characters.
