Blurb for THE ROGUE’S PRIZE:
Captain Henry Guffald is no ordinary captain. A member of
Nelson’s Tea, he’s learned the hard way what treachery will achieve. As a
result, he’s sworn an oath never to give in to his ambition. Daring, proud
Henry sets out to rescue a comrade captured in Spain. But when his ship is
attacked by a female pirate roving the Cornish coast, waylaying his plans,
Henry is forced to make her his prize if he’s going to save a good man’s life.
Lady Adele Seaton has been raised in a family profited by a lucrative smuggling
business. Though her parents wish otherwise, she would no sooner give up the
call to rove than marry. But obtaining independence is a challenge when her
brother faces a hangman’s noose. Planning to save him, she captures an English
ship. But things go awry and she is dragged home in disgrace, forced to ally
herself with the one man with the power to anchor more than her ship— her
heart.

Captain Henry Guffald is
a man on a mission. Under orders that will make or break his career, Henry
knows that if he fails it is more than his career or his reputation on the line
- it’s a man’s life. Suddenly waylaid by a female pirate who insists on being
taken seriously and attempts to outwit him, he has no choice but to play the
game set down by her father, Earl Pendrim, if he is to save his compatriot’s
life.
Adele Seaton tends to
act before she thinks and when her father and brothers don’t make a move to
save her brother, Garrick, from the Spanish hangman’s noose, she intends to do
it herself. She attacks a British ship, she attempts to capture it to use to
rescue her brother but soon finds herself the captive and compromised in a way
that humiliates her. The result, although not one she would prefer, soon becomes one
she desires.
THE ROGUE’S PRIZE by
Katherine Bone is a historical romance written with the classic feel of days
gone by but with a strong, gutsy, and fiery heroine. A captivating tale of a
couple entangled in a battle of wills - Adele Seaton, a young woman struggling
against the restraints of society, and Henry Guffald, a man battling the guilt of
having nearly failed a past love that now has his career hanging in the
balance.
We first meet Henry Guffald in book one of the Nelson's Tea Trilogy, DUKE BY DAY, ROGUE BY NIGHT by Katherine Bone but don't worry if you haven't read that one, you'll still enjoy THE ROGUE'S PRIZE. It works well as a stand alone.

I highly recommend THE

danger while keeping you turning the pages late into the night.
