By day, Pierce Pennington is one of Boston's most respected and sucessful merchants. By night he becomes infamous Captain MacHeath, smuggling arms by sea under the pall of darkness - all in the name of liberty. Portia Edwards will go to any length to find the family she's never known. All her life, she thought herself to be an orphan. Then the girl finds that her mother is not only alive, but here in Boston, being held captive by Portia's own grandfather, and she will need more than a little help spiriting her mother away to England.... But asking for help is something Portia has never found easy. So even when she steals into her grandfather's masquerade ball and she meets with the perfect opportunity to ask the dashing Pennington for help, stubborn pride stands in her way. Pennington would like nothing better than to forget about this proud young woman, yet he finds he cannot stop thinking of the night he met her in a garden....
