Morgana McShane, a gently bred young woman, unaware of her burgeoning beauty, was unready to leave her home at the death of her father, to journey to Ireland, to relatives she had never even met. Nor was she prepared to become the bride prize in a race between her cousins to claim her hand in marriage and the money her grandfather had promised to the one who succeeded in getting her to the altar. In the end, it was her cousin Colin she agreed to wed --- but this had never been her grandfather's intent; and when he realized his scheme was not working out as he had planned, he concocted yet another, tricking Morgana's cousin Rian into taking her as his bride. Rian was furious at the deception, being of no mind to give up his freedom. But like it or not, Morgana was now his wife --- and if he were honest with himself, he must admit he had wanted her ever since the very first moment he had laid eyes on her. Soon, Morgana found herself aboard her new husband's ship, besieged by passion, sailing halfway around the world, from Regency England to mysterious Macao, on an uncharted voyage to love!
