PURE ENCHANTMENT--PURE ESCAPADES BOOK 3
An infamous creole sea captain...a beautiful quadroon stowaway--a forbidden love that surges with the tides.

After leaving his infamous cousins' illegal slave trade, Captain Alex Lafitte and his first mate, Reece Carrow, haul rum in the Caribbean aboard his ship, the Enchanted Lady. When his childhood love, Talia Barberry, begs him to save her adopted son from the New Orleans authorities during the slave rebellions, Alex welcomes the little slave boy he once owned aboard with open arms.

But Marcus is now a man grown, and he has a secret: Zaria St. Clair, the woman he loves, is running from the law--and he's snuck the quadroon onto Alex's ship. When Alex discovers Marcus' deception, he struggles to keep his distance from the beautiful woman. Meeting the well-educated girl with her coppery eyes and keen intellect, Alex is drawn to her like a bee to honey. Over land and sea, Alex craves her sensual touch as the woman wiggles her way into his heart.

When Zaria informs him that his cousin has framed him for their crimes, they set off on a journey across the West Indies to clear his name. Disguising herself as a Voudou priestess, Zaria saves Alex's crew from a British brig, and the copper-skinned beauty ignites a fire deep within his soul. He wants her, and Alex vows to make Zaria his, no matter what the law says.
