The Devil's Bondman — Sylvia Thorpe

To Felicia, the man who had rescued her was an enigma--frightening and fascinating, a pirate and yet a gentleman. They called him Valentine, and he was a dangerous buccaneer. He was also a fugitive who seemed to flirt with death.

But death passed him by and people whispered he had made a pact with the devil.

Valentine had rescued Felicia and then ignored her--until a centuries-old feud and a strange gambling debt trapped them together once again.
