Surrender in Moonlight

"I am half-crazed with wanting you..."

Lorna comes upon infamous blockade runner Ramon Cazenave sheltering from the rain in a deserted mansion. They make love--out of despair on one side and revenge on the other, but also from perilous attraction. Who could guess Lorna would be blamed for the death of her boorish fiancé because of it?

New Orleans is dangerous for Ramon--the city has fallen to the Federal navy and he can't allow his ship to be taken. Yet the lovely young woman he seduced must escape the wrath of her dead fiancé's father. As the burning docks of the city light the night sky, they steal away downriver to the gulf.

So begins an exhilarating journey that sweeps from the warm blue waters of the Caribbean to the sea ports of the Civil War-torn South, from intrigue to breathtaking danger--and from sensual obsession to a love that must defy death itself.
