The Resource Lord of the Privateers

Summary: The eldest of the Frobisher brothers--widely known as the Lord of the Privateers--Royd Frobisher expects to execute the final leg of his brothers' rescue mission. He doesn't expect to be pressured into taking Isobel Carmichael--Royd's emotional nemesis, childhood sweetheart, ex-handfasted bride, and current business partner--along with him. Isobel has a mission of her own: to find her cousin Katherine and bring her safely home. Neither expects the shock that awaits as they set sail aboard Royd's ship, much less the new horizons that open before them as they make port in London and then embark on a full-scale rescue and assault on the mining compound buried in the jungle. Yet even with the support of his brothers and their ladies and all the rescued ex-captives, Royd and Isobel discover that freeing the captives is only half the battle. In order to identify and convict the backers behind the illicit enterprise--and thus protect the government from catastrophic destabilization--they must return to the ballrooms of the haut ton and, with the help of a small army of supporters, hunt the villains on their home ground. But having found each other again, having glimpsed the heaven that could be theirs again, how much are they willing to risk in the name of duty?
