But when he uncovers her own dark secret, Rafe realizes he's made a critical mistake--one that could cost him everything.

Yet as scorching days melt into sultry nights, Holly is drawn to the mysterious capitaine, with his unexpected sense of honor and his searing touch. When they're double-crossed, they'll have to risk trusting each other in ways they never imagined ... because in this deadly game of deception, it's their lives--and hearts--on the line.

Splendid debut novel by Brynn Kelly. Before I get into how much I loved this book I would like to thank. NetGalley and the author and publisher for my copy for an honest review.
WOW Amazing read. I am a big fan of suspenseful romance novels and this one does not disappoint at all. Rafe and Holly are the hero and the heroine in this story and I love them. Both damaged souls with a dark past that brings them together. The plot of the story is different than most might be use to but its really a heart pumping fast read .
When The Lost Boys kidnap Rafe Angelito's son, his fury and fear know no bounds. In exchange for his son, the former Lost Boy must kidnap Laura Hyland, daughter of a US Senator, for them. Holly Ryan made a bargain with Laura's father after she got out of prison–pose as socialite Laura. Holly is horrified when her yacht is boarded by pirates and she's taken hostage, but not before making sure two of the three captors are dead. Now it's just her and pirate “Jack,” who she sure as shit shouldn't think is sexy.
His captive is NOT what Rafe expected from a pampered socialite, and he can't help but admire her wit, athleticism, cool head, and if he's honest, her looks are no hardship either. Soon, they find themselves having to work together to fend off the real pirates, giant soul killing insects and eventually the very bastards that have Rafe's son.
I don't want to give away the story I will just say I loved it! 5 stars all the way.
