Silver Jasmine

Description:

They called her Silver Jasmine Slender as a reed, and as ready as a fawn to flee at a man's touch ...yet seventeen-year-old Tess had mettle too, though it could not prevent her cruel stepfather from gambling away her honor in a card game -- or Morgan Hamilton's forcing her into his marriage bed. Morgan Hamilton...soldier, sailor, Scotsman, enigma. How Tess longed to love him -- she who could not trust any man! Only on their sultry tropical isle, only at her new plantation home, a land seething with slavery and vengeance, could Tess grow to understand Morgan -- and the ways of her own heart.
