Elizabeth Rawley is obsessed with the 18th century warship "Black Cutter"--and its intriguing captain, Richard Colter. Elizabeth knows she and Captain Colter would have loved each other with a passion if they weren't separated by 200 years. One night on a moonlit beach in Key West, Elizabeth finds a man washed ashore, wearing 18th century clothing and resembling Richard Colter--who is very much alive. (June)
Was she dreaming? Hours before the costumed "Pirates' Ball," Elizabeth Rawley witnessed a strange spectacle in the waters off Key West. Engaged in mortal combat was the Black Cutter, Captain Richard Colter's ship. ~ Elizabeth was obsessed with the eighteenth century ship's treasure and with it's captain, a swashbuckling privateer who commanded the high seas and made women swoon for the favor of his wild passions. Then, on a moonlit beach, she found the body washed up in a homespun shirt, breeches and hemp tying back his long hair. It was Richard Colter and he was alive! Comment: Absolutely loved this book. Richard Colter to die for. I've read it three times and it still fills me with joy, passion and sorrow. I have it in my Top Ten keepers and will read it again soon. Even after a year, the characters and story still live inside me.
