description: THE THIEF...
  When Trevor Claremont was blind-sided by a pick pocket on the docks beside his clipper ship, he tracked down the culprit--only to face a feisty, emerald-eyed beauty who stirred his hungriest desires. Seeing a solution to his pressing problem of finding a bride to please his dying grandmother, he offered her a deal: marriage to him...or prison, never imagining that this little cut-purse would also steal his heart.
  ...AND THE SEA CAPTAIN
  Kristen Johnstone realized she'd been outfoxed by this handsome Englishman and reluctantly agreed to a marriage in name only. Soon, she traded rags for resplendent gowns, back alleys for drawing rooms, and fury for fiery passion in the arms of her new husband. But when the scandalous secrets of her past came to light, she would risk everything, including her heart, to save a love more precious than gold.
