RAVAGED is an epic action and adventure romance novel, from The Bicultural Series, following a Scottish laird and a royal woman bound by duty, power, and desire.

​

Alex Barton is a laird of his lands and a captain married to the sea. Handsome, sharp-tongued, and unapologetically honest, he takes women without illusion and leaves before attachment forms.

Trust taught him only loss, until Yvonne Efango was placed in his care.

Yvonne Efango was raised within a kingdom that measures women by obedience and silence. Newly wedded as a concubine to King Oyomo, she is marked for death and forced to flee. Rescued by Prince Femi, Yvonne is entrusted to Alex Barton, a royal guest honored for a dangerous rescue and bound by duty to protect her.

Attraction comes easily. Trust does not. Months at sea blur restraint, and walls lower as safety begins to feel real. But when loss strikes, Alex is forced to confront a truth he has spent his life avoiding. Love demands language he does not know how to speak.

"Ye are my woman. I've never called anyone that. Ever."
