This book was never published. The O.C. - Orange County, California. Land of luxury yachts, exotic cars, seaside estates, and extravagant dreams. And it's home to Benjamin Cannon and Sidney Picket. Cannon is six feet of ex-Special Forces muscle and boy-next-door charm. His "extravagant" dream is to spend some time living on the Texas Goose, a 230-foot yacht owned by oil tycoon Quentin Gosling, while he sorts out life's priorities, maybe starts a new career. Okay, so it's not the most ambitious dream, but it's ambition nonetheless. Only thing is it doesn't register as ambition to Picket, the no-nonsense ex-Navy Lt. Commander captaining the Goose. To her it seems a lot like freeloading - even if she finds Cannon more than a little attractive. And Cannon's dreams aren't getting too much cooperation from the Mexican pirates who attacked his friends sixty-foot Warwick sloop off the Baja peninsula, involving him and Picket in a complicated plot of corruption and international intrigue that would test even Captain Jack Sparrow's questionable morality. Some cussing, some killing, some foreplay, some fun, emotional justice, and a kick-ass ending. WorldCat lists this as the Large Print Edition
