Harbored Desires

Harriet Hazelby has three weeks left before London society claims her. All she wants is to forget about the looming season and her sister's matchmaking. Disguised as a stable hand, she explores the town of Hull where she's mistaken for a sailor and forced to board a ship.

Captain Alexander Ordell has no time to waste. Determined to sail with the outgoing tide, an unexpected stowaway will not ruin his plans. He resolves to see her disembark swiftly from his ship and his life. Instead, she delivers a message that throws his world into turmoil. With one alleged murder already hanging over his head, he vows to keep her safe at all costs.

With every mile at sea, sparks fly and tensions swell. Harriet is pulled further from her old life and closer to the man who could save or ruin her. Despite withholding her name, the mystery woman Alexander has sworn to protect finds a way into his guarded heart. But can he protect her from himself?
