description: Hijacking an Englishman from a brothel is all in a days work for Captain Mattie St. Armand. She needs protective coloration and a nave (and expendable) white man will keep the eyes of the authorities off her as she smuggles slaves from the Florida Territory to freedom in the Bahamas. Oliver Woodruff wanted a spot of travel in the Caribbean before he settled down but he never expected Marauding Mattie. Hell help her but he knows theres no place in his world for the bastard daughter of a pirate and a freedwoman. As Mattie trains him for their ruse she comes to realize hes a man she can turn to for support and companionship and Oliver grows to love the commanding and daring woman who refuses to fit societys mold but both are sure their relationship is doomed by societys taboos. It will take danger and adventure (and Roscoe the parrot) to convince them that the passion between them is more than an island fantasy. **********I adore Darlene Marshalls booksI can always count on her to make me laugh make me sigh and leave me happy. - Courtney Milan New York Times and USA Today Bestselling AuthorI encourage you all to try this author's voice. (She has a great backlist too.). ---USA Today Books'Read it on the beach!' I seriously doubt that any summer experience can possibly be more delightful than sitting on the beach while reading The Pirates Secret Baby.- Smart Bitches Trashy BooksSea Change is original fun and a bit eccentric  I definitely recommend it!New York Times bestselling author and RITA award winner Eloisa JamesI love a good girl-poses-as-boy story. Add in a pirate captain and a slow simmering attraction and Im hooked. (Resign yourself to the marine allusions.) Darlene Marshall does both in her wonderful Sea Change.
