Tormented — Kristine Twining

Pirating pirates is a risky business indeed. Kyle Cailin swears vengeance when Marissa Payne dares it, but it's not the lost riches he's after. His dark mood after leaving court, and Katelyn, proved useful in filling his coffers, but not the gaping hole inside him. Perhaps that icy lump would never melt, but bending Marissa to his will and exploring the white hot lust she sparked in him, and returned tenfold, might prove more satisfying than the cold gold he thought he sought. Marissa's glee at swiping treasure from beneath the nose of the dark and handsome pirate is short lived. She finds herself quickly obsessed and intrigued by him, and by her body's sudden intense reaction to him. Endlessly fascinated by him, she rushes to the edge of the cliff time and again, never looking to see how far she's falling in love. Can she break though his cold bastard attitude and touch his heart without completely shattering her own?
