A brown-skinned girl of African English descent and common birth amongst the landed middle class has been raised to the nobility ranks of Britain by personality, good heart, and wit. And the love of a young noble and their King.

        Now a titled noblewoman with the highest connections and wealth, Becca is more than a petulant runaway bride, because the powerful men and women interwoven through her life are changing Great Britain into a modern power.

        Plus, who’s to say a Lady cannot be dangerous?

        A well-loved general and high peer of Britain, who has lost his only heir and has watched Becca grow to maturity, without realizing his true feelings for her. 

        He is awake now to his feelings about his friend Marcus' wife; and Lord Jon has waited long enough and has the reach and has the reach and the will to have her captured and returned to his side and bed, no matter how far she runs, whether on land or sea.

        A notorious Irish Catholic pirate with conflicting reports about his skin's color and even his gender. Gentleman pirate Aidan O'Rourke is in personal revolt and revenge against all that is Great Britain has taken from him. 

        But, an unexpected British gift comes to him in the shape of lively, irresistible Becca.

        But, can he claim and keep hold of her?
