Synopsis

Johanna Lindsey sweeps readers into the privileged world of English aristocrats and the exotic haunts of Caribbean treasure hunters in a novel of passion and romantic adventure featuring the incomparable Malorys -- a family of dashing rogues, spirited ladies, and rakehell adventurers. Now American rogue Drew Anderson meets his match when his brother-in-law James Malory introduces the daughter of a pirate to London society. Devastated by her mother's death, eighteen-year-old Gabrielle Brooks sets sail from England to a Caribbean island in search of her estranged father. But instead of encountering a distinguished merchant ship's captain, she discovers her father has become a pirate! After spending three wonderful years sailing and treasure hunting with him, Gabrielle is dismayed when her father decides she must return to London to find a proper husband. His old friend James Malory will sponsor her in polite society. In London, Gabrielle is escorted to balls and parties by James Malory's wife, Georgina, and her brother, Drew Anderson, a dashing American sea captain who is visiting. Though drawn to Gabrielle's fiery beauty, Drew, a fun-loving rogue, wants nothing to do with a young woman hunting for a husband. Incensed by Drew's indifference, Gabrielle is determined to win his attentions. But when Drew embroils her in a scandal the night before he's to sail back to America, Gabrielle vows revenge. Enlisting the help of her father's pirate cronies, Gabrielle commandeers Drew's ship and takes him prisoner. But as passion runs high on their sea voyage, it becomes difficult to tell who is truly the captor and who is the captive. With the humor, lovable characters, and romantic intensity that have distinguished Johanna Lindsey's seven previous Malory novels and placed them in the ranks of the best-loved and most widely read romantic novels of our time, Captive of My Desires tells a passionate love story that will capture your heart and never let go....

Wonderful! All the books on the Mallory's are great to read. You will laugh and want to read to books over and over.

This is quite possibly the worst book I've ever had the misfortune to read. I generally don't write comments on the books I've loved or hated, but this novel was so God-awful I wouldn't inflict it on my own worst enemy. The heroine and the hero were ridiculous I couldn't even finish it

Goodreads review by KarenH on December 09, 2009

Ugh. Looks like I dipped in the Malory well one too many times. After reading The Magic of You and Say You Love Me, and enjoying both immensely, I was looking forward to more of the same with Captive of My Desires. What a let-down. Not only were the hero and heroine totally mismatched, but I couldn'......more

Goodreads review by Celia {Hiatus until August} on February 09, 2021

Adorei, apesar de ser a história de Drew Anderson e os Malory não terem um papel tão relevante. Gabby e Drew têm uma intensidade que nos agarra à história desde o primeiro momento e não nos permite largar enquanto não terminamos o livro.......more

I read Captive of My Desires during a reading slump, and it did not make the situation better. This book was just blah. Starting with Until Forever, Johanna Lindsey's writing took a downturn for me. There was major magic missing from her books published in the new millennium, which disappointed me s......more
