The description of the book I am listing below is from the back jacket of the book. I'm adding it because I believe the one on the Goodreads page does not depict this story.
He Took Her Heart Captive… Raised on a buccaneer’s ship in the azure waters of the Caribbean, Quintana Teach, the beautiful daughter of the notorious Blackbeard, was as fierce and wild as the sea. Yet something drew her to Jared Cameron, the rugged captain her father’s crew had taken prisoner. Hatred smoldered in his eyes, anger burned from every inch of his powerful body, and unbidden desire spared in her heart…and in his. He could teach her the secrets of loving. She could show him how to survive.
From the high seas to exotic island shores, passion bound them irresistibly together. But their nights in paradise would end in betrayal. Now Jared was Quintana’s captor; her most dangerous enemy…and the one man whose love could set them both free.
Got this as a freebie and liked it very much. I love pirates and strong females. Quinn was interesting and not just your 'run of the mill' pirate girl. It was also obvious that the author did some research and knew a lot about pirates. Anyway, it kept me entertained and I am saving it to read again.......
