Lady Reluctant

Beautiful, fiery Blusette Morgan, daughter of a notorious pirate, has been raised in the rough vulgar atmosphere of Morgan's Island. Now, her father is sending her, against her will, to her mother in London, with instructions to Lady Paget, to make Blu into a lady.

Convinced that she is the only virgin on the island, Blu intends to remedy that state before meeting her detested mother, and her discerning eye lands on Thomas, the gorgeous privateer who will sail her to England. This is the man who will make her into a woman and not sour her forever. But the momentous event does not unfold as expected.

Blu arrives in London to discover a family she didn't know she had, a glittering life she could not have imagined, and Thomas is the center of that vibrant world. Thomas, the passionate man she loves and craves but cannot have . . .
