Description: Its 1796 and not
only is love between men taboo, it is punishable by death. Lt. David Archer is
an officer in His Majestys Navy and a gentleman of Regency Society. He is also
hopelessly in love with his shipmate, Lt. William Marshall. David is certain
that his feelings, if expressed, would be met with revulsion. Afraid of losing
the strong friendship that he has forged with William, he vows to never speak
of or act on his desire, promising himself to take the secret to his grave.
Although William
is young, his innate talent has allowed him to quickly rise above his humble
background and gain a reputation as a promising officer. The Royal Navy is his
world, and in that world there is no room for anything as frivolous as romance.
Then, in a twist of fate, the two men are abducted by a ruthless pirate who
finds pleasure in toying with his captives.
Thrown together
in close quarters and wondering if they will survive, theyre are faced with
some difficult choices. William struggles with his growing feelings for David
and, try as he might to dismiss them, he cant. When David makes the ultimate
sacrifice to protect the man he loves, the reason for it is clear and the
passion that the men have denied for so long is realized for the first time.
Before the lovers can have any sort of life together, they must first escape.
