Pepper on the Wind

She crossed an ocean to marry a respectable gentleman. She never expected to fall for a pirate.

When nineteen-year-old Araminta Westerley arrives in Bombay, she expects a sensible marriage, a comfortable future, and a husband who shares her familys passion for the spice trade. Instead, her extraordinary talent for identifying pepper uncovers a dangerous deception at the heart of the East India Company.

And someone is determined to keep her quiet.

Enter Matt Corrigan—a notorious Irish pirate with a price on his head, a ship full of secrets, and a past darker than his reputation. He knows the truth behind the missing pepper convoys, but proving it could cost him everything.

Thrown together by a conspiracy stretching from Bombays bustling spice markets to the dangerous waters of the Indian Ocean, Minta and Matt must navigate betrayal, deadly enemies, and an attraction neither intended.

She was raised to be sensible. He was born to defy the rules.

But when love becomes the greatest risk of all, will they trust their hearts—or lose everything to the wind?
