Sweet Southern Caress

by Wendy Garrett

HE WAS HARD TO RESIST Fiery Alisa couldn't wait for her twenty-first birthday. Finally, the Georgia beauty would own Windlea and would be able to free her slaves and run the Sea Island cotton plantation the way it ought to be run. All she had to do was hold out against marriage until then ... no matter how insistent the suitor. But when handsome Hugh Barrett was shipwrecked on the shores of St. Simon's Island in a terrible storm, she found herself trembling with desire as she tended his sea-battered body. And despite her determination never to be tempted by passion, she melted into Hugh's strong arms, returned his fevered kisses, and soon became a slave herself ... to ecstasy! SHE WAS EASY TO LOVE Hugh Barrett liked to think of himself as immune to women's wiles, but when the beautiful plantation owner rescued him from the pounding surf, he thought he'd died and gone to heaven. Then he tried to give the luscious Alisa a kiss of gratitude, and quickly learned that his rescuer was no angel! She had one plan in mind ... and it didn't include romance. Then, Hugh found a weapon as old as time itself -- beneath his scorching kiss. Soon, he would possess her in love's ultimate embrace, then capture her heart in a rapturous SWEET SOUTHERN CARESS
