What this book is about
Merry Wilding is kidnapped and brought aboard a pirate ship where nothing is what it seems — and nearly everyone, including the beautiful, enigmatic Cat, is hiding something. The Windflower is a cult classic of the romance genre: lush, witty, emotionally complex, and deeply unusual. It includes explicit content, violence, and a slow-burn emotional center that rewards patient readers.
