The Pirate’s Temptation by Tara Kingston

A governess with a secret…
On the run from a vindictive lord, Leana Fraser connives her way into a privateer’s Highland home, the perfect refuge for a woman who doesn’t want to be found. Given ten days to prove she’s not just another in the string of governesses his precocious daughters have driven away, she takes on the challenge. Resisting their wickedly handsome father’s seductive charm is a far more daunting proposition. Leana knows better than to surrender to temptation. Pity her heart doesn’t agree.

The Devil of the Highlands…
Like his ancestors before him, James MacArron commanded crews of rough and ready pirates, but raising his daughters alone is more challenging than any mutiny. The widowed privateer needs a governess, and fast—yet his gut tells him the spirited beauty who shows up at his door is not entirely what she seems. As the governess wins over his rebellious children, he’s drawn to her, but she’s a temptation he cannot afford. Falling for Leana is out of the question… until an old enemy rears his head, and Jamie and Leana must risk everything to claim their hearts’ desire.
