Summary
He’s tall, taller even than Balthazar, who is by no means a small man. His shoulders are broad enough to strain the faded red fabric of his shirt. He’s foregone a coat despite his rank, working in only a tunic with the collar open to reveal a triangle of dark skin and darker hair, and the hint of swirling tattoos. His breeches are tucked into worn boots, and a sash at his waist holds a cutlass and pistol. His hair is black as raven feathers, worn long enough to brush his shoulders, falling loose around a face that looks carved from some artist’s fantasy.
But it’s his eyes that arrest her most. Even from a distance, she can see they’re unusual; a warm hazel that seems to shift between gold and green in the tropical light, framed by thick lashes and currently focused on the horizon with an intensity that makes the muscles low in her stomach clench.
He looks, by all means, like a pirate from a penny dreadful.

When Nesta is summoned home to England, she gets aboard the Andromeda and meets Cassian, captain of the ship and bane of her existence. When they get caught in a storm, everything changes forever.

Summary
England - May, 1944
“Your husband doesn't write you.”
Nesta didn't look up from where she was primly folding one of his men's uniforms.
“Well, Captain, he is fighting a war.”
Cassian frowned, knowing full well the men in his Company wrote every chance they could, anxious to hear from their wives, to be reminded what it was all for. Her words were an excuse. A deflection from a lovelessness that cracked his heart in two.
“I don't suppose you would let me?” He asked.
"Let you what?"
“Write you, sweetheart.”
--
While training for the Allies' invasion Europe, Captain Cassian Garcia of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment meets the mysterious Nesta Mandray and finds a light in the darkness. Beautiful, if not burdened by some deep sadness, he finds he cannot stay away, even with the ring around her finger.
When Nesta Mandray meets the bold, yet inexplicably handsome American Officer lodging next door, her dream of escape from a loveless marriage becomes increasingly hard to ignore. But a life scarred makes for a woman cautious, and it will take more than brief conversations over clean linens to convince her to take a leap of faith.

Summary
The one thing they could both agree on was this - She did not belong here.
Nesta Archeron had been made for glass skyscrapers and slick offices. She was a soldier in the war against misused semi colons and bad forum selection clauses.
She did not belong on an active drill rig in South America.
She did not belong in Cassian's desert, and she certainly didn't belong inside his head. Yet there she was, and until this job was done - and done properly - neither one of them would be getting a moment of peace.

Summary
The conductor clears his throat. “It appears we have… un petit problème.”
But Nesta is already looking past him into the compartment, and she sees the problem immediately, and it’s not petit by any means.
A man occupies the space, sprawled across one of the two facing bench seats with his long legs stretched out, boot heels scuffing the burgundy carpet. He wears dark trousers that have seen better days, and a waistcoat over a white shirt with the sleeves rolled to his elbows. A brown tweed jacket hangs from a hook beside the window. His hair, dark and too long, falls along a face that looks carved from rough stone, all hard angles and a shadow of stubble along his jaw. As Nesta and the conductor appear in the doorway, he glances up from the small leather-bound book in his hands, and she finds herself looking into hazel eyes that gleam with unmistakable amusement.
“Well,” he says, voice low and rough around the edges, accented with something she can’t quite place. “This is unexpected.”
—————
When Nesta Archeron boards the Orient Express in a desperate attempt to flee scandal, she's forced to share a compartment with a large, insolent scoundrel. What could go wrong?
