His enemies call him Star Rider. The son of a Scottish rebel and an American woman, John Patrick Sutherland raids British ships and seizes their cargo for the patriot cause—until his own ship goes down in the Delaware River. Badly wounded and determined not to die at the end of an English rope, he finds refuge at the home of a compassionate beauty whose loyalties are with the Tories.
 
Annette Carey aids the crown by tending British soldiers. When she takes in an injured man who is introduced to her as a high-ranking officer named John Gunn, she is powerfully drawn to him, unaware that he is the legendary privateer who has eluded capture for so long. As she gives in to traitorous desire, Annette is tested in ways she couldn’t have foreseen, and finds herself risking her future for her enemy—a man she must now trust with her life.
