On an island off the coast of Maine, Lucien Cabot monitors the dark clouds rolling across a bleak sky. Patience and planning have been Lucien's two closest friends for years, and now Mother Nature has aligned to create the perfect storm he needs to exact his revenge. Television producer Sophie Emerson can't believe her luck when the mysterious owner of Raven Island offers her a story about the island and castle. She really can't believe it. Still, if real, this offer could be the break her career needs. Although suspicious, Sophie agrees to meet Lucien at his home. Gotcha . Lucien can taste victory -- if only he can resist the keen intelligence, beauty, and light in Sophie. Falling for his guest is the last thing Lucien can afford to do. Trapped on Raven Island, Sophie is shocked by her powerful desire to know more about Ravenstoke's clever, darkly attractive owner, even as she fights wicked sexual fantasies about him that blur the lines between work and pleasure. In secret, Sophie also searches for the truth behind her invitation to Lucien's island. A perfect storm of fierce attraction and unbending revenge soon rages behind the walls of Ravenstoke. In the aftermath, once the debris has cleared, will Sophie's love for Lucien be enough to bring him into the light? CONTENT NOTE: Originally written and published in 2011.
