Jo Goodman's best-selling novels of romance and adventure unite brave, beautiful women with their charismatic soul mates. Tempting Torment tells the breathtaking story of Jessa Winter and Noah McClellan. In 1787, desperate to leave England, Jessa marries the mortally wounded Noah expecting to become his widow and escape to America. But she hasn't counted on his will to survive-nor his desire to make her his wife in body as well as name.
Part of a trilogy on the McClellan family, you'll love the characters and the dialogue. Jo Goodman never fails to deliver.

FROM THE BOOK:FALSE PRETENSES...Desperate to escape to America with her life--and that of the infant in her arms--Jessa Winter quickly agrees to wed a mortally wounded man, planning to flee England as his widow. She doesn't count on Noah McClellan's will to live--or his determination to make her deliver on ALL of their marriage vows. But baby Gideon and her own hidden secrets must be protected--even as Noah's passionate demands tempt her to trust him with everything : the truth, her life, and her heart...LEAD TO TRUE PASSIONS...Noah has every intention of getting his due from the cunning female who's played him for a fool. As they sail for America, he is torn between outrage and growing tenderness for this beautiful woman he now calls wife. Jessa's recklessness nearly cost him his life--yet he cannot fight the burgeoning desire to tease and tempt her into sharing more than just his name.
