description: She Would Have Her Revenge
  Bess Metcalfe had been young when she first met ruggedly handsome seaman Seth Garret, but she had loved him with all the passion of a woman. And he had repaid her love by abandoning her! Little did he know that she now held his fate in her hands. For with her uncle's death, she was now sole owner of the family merchant business, which counted Seth's ship among it's assets. Bess planned to show Seth how it felt to be betrayed-if only her own searing attraction for the virile captain did not betray her first...
  
  He Would Have Her Heart
  It was five years since the call of duty had swept Seth from Bess's sensuous embrace...five years since the fickle vixen had written him off with a cruel letter. And her she was-aboard his ship-even more beautiful and bewitching than before. One taste of her sweet, sea-kissed lips was all it took to rekindle the flames of raging desire. And as she filled the long shipboard nights with a blazing passion that consumed his very soul, Seth knew he was lost...lost in the rapturous wonder of a love that bound him-now and forever- to his stormy, seductive...sea mistress.
