description: The captain of the Prodigal Son has a deserved reputation as the deadliest (and best dressed) pirate in the Caribbean but Robert St. Armands totally at sea when it comes to Marauding Mattie the daughter he never knew he had. How in the world can he deal with the littlest pirate one who prefers knife-throwing to arithmetic lessons and whod rather be keelhauled than eat her beets? He needs help!Lydia Burke is living a safe respectable life separated from England by an entire ocean. Its exactly what she needs and shes not going to risk her boring but secure position as a governess to consort with pirates especially one whos too pretty for his own good or her peace of mind.No self-respecting governess would be willing to come aboard the notorious Prodigal Son but Robert didnt fight his way to the top by letting small obstacles like scruples stop him. If he cant hire Lydia Burke hell steal her and take her to England with them certain he can charm her into his bed along the way as an added bonus on the voyage.It will be a true voyage of discovery for the pirate and the governess as one learns to navigate the rocky shoals of parenthood while the other tries to keep deadly secrets hidden and both will find that while its a child who initially brings them together the growing passion between them offers the greatest temptation.
