Rules Of An Engagement

Captain Bradshaw Carroway loves the sea, fighting, and women--and not necessarily in that order. When he's sent on a mission, he's more than ready to throw himself into the heat of a battle...Instead Bradshaw finds himself assigned to escort a group of spoiled Mayfair aristocrats safely to the Philippines, among them a famous botanist and his bewitching daughter...
Zephyr Ponsley has spent most of her life following her father around the world on expeditions. She adores the adventure, but when she encounters the very overbearing, irksome...and, yes, very intriguing Captain Carroway, Zephyr begins to wish--just the tiniest bit--that she knew how to dance and flirt like the other ladies on board.
And when the uncouth captain's light-blue eyes alight on Zephyr, she is certain he is merely keeping himself occupied, dallying with a chit who doesn't know the rules. Of course, she might just have a few rules of her own to impart...
