description: HER PAST DESTROYED, HER DESTINY WAS A HIGHWAYMAN'S LOVEThe family and home she'd lost as a girl in the French Revolution were now only shadows in Carlotta's haunted dreams. And when murder forced her from the English manor where she'd been reduced to servitude, she was penniless and alone in the world. Dressed as a boy, Carlotta sought safety with Simon, a roguish highwayman--who quickly saw the exquisite beauty beneath her disguise and possessed her with a passion that left her consumed by desire.THIS TRIUMPHANT FIREBut Carlotta's beauty caught the eye of a vicious aristocrat who took what he wanted. What he wanted was Carlotta--to bear him a son and heir. Her happiness, her life, meant nothing to him.Carried off to a Caribbean Island throbbing with slave rebellion, then to New Orleans stirring with French intrigue--Carlotta endured her degrading captivity, hoping against hope that her highwayman wouldn't forget her... That if her heart was her fate, Simon was her destiny.
