The extraordinary Birmingham Family Saga commences in The Flame and the Flower -- it continues in The Elusive Flame and concludes in A Season Beyond a Kiss. The Flower: Doomed to a life of unending toil, Heather Simmons fears for her innocence--until a shocking, desperate act forces her to flee...and to seek refuge in the arms of a virile and dangerous stranger. The Flame: A lusty adventurer married to the sea, Captain Brandon Birmingham courts scorn and peril when he abducts the beautiful fugitive from the tumultuous London dockside. But no power on Earth can compel him to relinquish his exquisite prize. For he is determined to make the sapphire-eyed lovely his woman. . .and to carry her off to far, uncharted realms of sensuous, passionate love.
Heather and Brandon are fascinating from the moment they become involved. A historical novel about the American Colonies and 18th Century England.
Classic, trashy, badly written, wonderfully decadent romance.
The bold, tempestuous romance of a kidnapped and ravished aristocratic girl.
On her way to London, an orphaned beauty is mistaken for a lady of the night and must be rescued from attack by a dashing sea captain who discovers her true identity, and together the couple sets sail for the high seas and a life of passion.
