Bertrice Small

Unconquered Bertrice Small

Brilliant, outspoken, willful--no one dared challenge stunning Miranda's wild ways . . . Except Jared Dunham. Betrothed to this wildcat in a pact that allowed Miranda to remain mistress of her ancestral home off the New England coast, the roguish merchant-adventurer turns his wife's burning rage to searing ecstasy as he fires her most wanton desires. But times are dangerous--Napoleon is plundering the continents and seas. Miranda's spirited ways and breathtaking sensuality will plunge her into perilous escapades of brutality and discovery--from the war-torn Crimea and a savage slave-breeding farm to a terrifying capture and a grueling trek to Istanbul. In Miranda Dunham, Beatrice Small has crafted a lusty, legendary heroine to rival the infamous Skye O'Malley. Unconquered is a breathless novel of sensual daring and fiery adventure--and a heroine who surrenders to nothing except her destiny. Contains mature themes.
