Njegovi vrući poljupci bude u njoj žudnju, ali nakon zajednički provedene strastvene noći, krv joj uzavre nakon što uslijedi njegov prezir.

Nicole je prisiljena odustati od svojega zamišljenog plana nakon što njezinog oca pogrešno optuže i zadrže u zatvoru, no unatoč tomu ostaje nepokolebljiva… i odlazi na otvoreno more s očevim brodom. Ali planove joj osujeti oluja pa ona završi kao stvarna zatočenica na Sutherlandovom brodu – i dok joj razum trebala pobjeći, tijelo je potiče da se preda.

Kresley Cole returns with a breathtaking romantic saga of love, honor, and passion unbound -- as a man of duty faces his greatest trial, and a young castaway discovers her greatest desire.... A man noted for his courage and integrity, Captain Grant Sutherland journeys to Oceania to find Victoria Dearbourne, an English girl lost at sea a decade before. He's given her ailing grandfather his word -- as a gentleman -- to find and protect her. But one look at a grown Victoria and Grant has never felt less like one. Tori relishes freedom, untamed passion, and spontaneity above stifling order. Even more so when a proud, cold British captain arrives to rescue her, though she has no wish to be. As Grant tries to convince her to leave her island home, she begins to see in him a man hungering for more. A man who once laughed. A man who desires her but won't take what she offers. Grant struggles to control his own savage passions -- and fails, Tori must decide what she wants more -- her unfettered independence or the only man who could tame her wild heart....
