A Pirate’s Honor by Tricia Owens

When Jaime takes to the sea, it’s not for money or for pleasure: it’s for revenge. Leaving his peaceful life on land behind is the only step he can take when his future is brutally destroyed and his heart is shattered. Captain Gareth West is a feared pirate with a reputation for kidnapping and ransoming men and women. He’s also known for bedding them so well that no one has a reason to complain. However, a terrible incident has left him scarred and reluctant to become involved with anyone ever again…until one day he comes upon a shipwreck.

When Jaime’s ship is attacked by pirates and he is left for dead, Gareth sees an opportunity to banish the ghosts from his head. He decides to take the young man on board and use him as the prostitute that Jaime pretends to be. But Gareth quickly determines that his attractive captive is not a whore despite his apparent eagerness. Though he responds to Gareth as no lover ever has, there’s a fire in him that worries Gareth. Jaime is a dangerous mystery, and Gareth knows it’s essential that he learn his secret. But he’s caught off guard when Jaime’s secret turns out to be the very nightmare that Gareth is running from.
