Smuggling may be de rigueur for some along the Norfolk coast in 1815, but it isn't the usual activity of noble women. Not so for Kathryn "Kit" Cranmer--she yearns for adventure and excitement. Posing as a young boy, Kit is named leader of a ragtag gang of smugglers. Her wits and courage make her a natural leader. But the Norfolk coast is small, and smuggling provides the only lucrative means of support for most of the people who live there. As leader of her small band of smugglers, Kit finds herself pitted against Captain Jack, the head of a rival gang, when the groups compete for the same goods. Jack is infamous for his reputation, but Kit can't resist his charms and they enter into a love affair that is as tempestuous as the rocky coast on which their gangs fight.

One of my favorites! It's not really part of the Bastion Club series, but Anthony is introduced in this; and Jack visits later in the series.

This is a "prequel" to the Bastion Club series. The series is really great with both good adventure, mystery and romance. This book wasn't quite as entertaining as the following series, but the main characters appear throughout the series so it shouldn't be passed up.
