Captain of My Heart

Heroes of the Sea #2

by Danelle Harmon

Updated and revised from its original 1992 version.

Excitement heralds the arrival of Captain Brendan Jay Merrick, a dashing privateer whose daring sea battles against His Majesty's fleet have made him a legend in the American colonies. Brendan has plans for the Ashton Shipyard to build his magnificent new schooner. But one look at the handsome Irishman, and Ashton's daughter Mira is making plans of her own . . .

Mira Ashton - queen of schemes and mistress of spunk - disguises herself as a crew member and sneaks aboard the newly built Kestrel to become the schooner's sharpest gunner ... and the captain's most outrageous distraction. As passions flare, desire explodes with the turbulence of an angry sea with Mira competing against Kestrel for Brendan's love. But when tragedy strikes, Mira must join forces with her mighty rival in a daring adventure that turns the tide of battle and brings glorious victory to the colonists, the captain ... and the lady who has captured his heart.
