title: Sweet Mary Anne
author: Miles, Deborah
description: "I stole you from the sea, Mary Anne. Some people believe that makes you mine."
  
  Lieutenant Luke Rowe both frightened and attracted Mary Anne. He had saved her from shipwreck and brought her to the Australian convict settlement. There were dangerous undercurrents in isolated Etwall--and Luke Rowe was in the thick of them all.
  
  Mary Anne had pulled herself out of the squalor of the slums by her wits and beauty--she couldn't help but try her wiles on every handsome man she met.
  
  But Luke Rowe saw through Mary Anne's schemes and challenged her notions of men as charming but temporary playthings. Luke insisted on honesty. When the storm broke at Etwall, she had no choice but to give him the truth he demanded.
