title: Within a Captain's Treasure
author: Olech, Lisa A.
description: This pirate's latest prize may be love. . .
  
  With a single pistol shot and the swing of a cutlass, Alice Tupper saves her mistress's life. But no lady's maid in polite society has ever killed a duke--at least, not on purpose. So Alice sets sail for America and her new destiny--only to find herself battling pirates on the high seas. Aboard her rescue ship, The Scarlet Night, she is hailed a hero and earns her place among the crew. . .as well as the ire of Captain Gavin Quinn.
  
  Gavin chose this pirate's life, but he knows it's no place for a woman, especially one as exasperating--and beautiful--as Alice. Despite his desire for her, Gavin is determined to do the right thing and deliver her to the new world. But Alice's deepest wish is a life by Gavin's side. Will his heart overrule his sense, and will he risk everything to pursue his greatest treasure of all?
