the daredevil snared by stephanie laurens

The sort of man Katherine can trust-with her body, with her life. The sadistic mercenary captain who runs the mine has other ideas, but Caleb's true strength lies in extracting advantage from adversity, and through the clashes that follow, he matures into the leader of men he was always destined to be. Then Katherine meets a handsome man-a captain-in the jungle, and he and his crew bring the sweet promise of rescue. Guarded by well-armed and well-trained mercenaries, the captives have been searching for some means of escape, but in vain. She and the other captured adults understand that their lives are limited by the life of the mine. His actions are decisive, and he completes the mission's next stage-but responsibility, once exercised, has taken root, and he remains in the jungle to guard the captives whose rescue is the mission's ultimate goal.Katherine Fortescue has fled the life of poverty her wastrel father had bequeathed her and come to Freetown as a governess, only to be kidnapped and put to work overseeing a child workforce at a mine. When opportunity strikes, he seizes the next leg of the covert mission his brothers have been pursuing and sails to Freetown.
