The Major's Lady
(2025)(The first book in the Lady's Pirate Companion Stories series)
A novel by C K Mackenzie
Can two souls find love amidst the chaos of war?
Mélina Dos Santos lost almost everything when the French invaded Portugal—everything but her beloved son and a burning desire for vengeance. Determined to keep her child safe and avenge her country, Mélina returns to Portugal on a dangerous mission to uncover a secret French supply line. But the Portugal she left behind is no longer home.
Major Hudson Seyler, the Earl of Somerton, never expected to inherit his title. When disease claims his family and half his village, he turns his back on the life he once knew. Tasked with discovering French supply lines in southern Spain, Hudson hadn’t counted on meeting Mélina, or the unexpected attraction that blooms between them.
Love was the last thing either of them sought, but perhaps it was exactly what they needed.
Spying on the French along the hills of Portugal wasn’t the ideal location for a romance. Hudson found it was all too easy to fall for the lovely, passionate Mélina. But when Mélina is captured by the French, Hudson will stop at nothing to rescue the woman who has become his lifeline.
