A Rhinestone Affair
(2026)(The second book in the Rhinestones and Romance series)
A Story by Merline Lovelace
She came to compete for a crown.
She never expected to capture a pirate.
Francesca Souza arrives at the dazzling Global Legacy International pageant determined to prove that a fisherman’s daughter from Portugal belongs among the world’s most accomplished women. Falling for the island’s most notorious bachelor was definitely not part of the plan.
Sir Jonathan ‘Jack’ Somers—soldier, sailor, and descendant of the legendary pirate Sir George Somers—is used to charting his own course…until a fiery beauty on a motor scooter crashes straight into his carefully ordered life.
Francesca is bold, passionate, and gloriously unpredictable. One minute she’s arguing with him on a roadside, the next she’s laughing and stirring his senses under a Bermudan moon—and with every stolen moment, every heated glance, Jack feels his carefully charted course slipping away.
Because some treasures aren’t meant to be discovered. They’re meant to be claimed.
Genre: Romance
