Svého nastávajícího však nikdy neviděla, a proto se vypravila za ním do Ameriky, aby mu do očí sdělila, že o svazek z rozumu nestojí. Její loď však přepadl proslulý pirát přezdívaný Stříbrný jestřáb, a tím z jejího života navždy vymazal ostatní muže – tedy i ty, které by mohla v budoucnu upřímně milovat. Skye zuřila a rozhodla se drzého piráta zničit, i kdyby za to měla tvrdě zaplatit... Všemi obávaný pán moří byl jejím věznitelem i otrokem. Stříbrný jestřáb si přísahal, že zlatovlasou krasavici zkrotí a přinutí ji, aby začala toužit po jeho vášnivém objetí. Podle zákonů moře mu patřila a on byl odhodlán přimět svou kořist, aby se z vlastní vůle stala pirátovou milenkou.

A za jeho nevěstu byla určena právě Elisa, která je ovšem zamilovaná do jiného muže. Marně se však brání smluvenému sňatku, protože sir Bryan ji zajme a posléze dovede k oltáři. Může být ale manželství uzavřené za takovýchto okolností šťastné?

Skylar Connorová neměla nikdy na růžích ustláno. Jako oboustranný sirotek se ocitla v poručnictví otčíma, který ji týral a zneužíval. Trvalo dlouho, než v sobě našla dost odvahy utéct a uchýlila se k lordu Douglasovi, starému skotskému šlechtici, jenž přijel do Nového světa za dobrodružstvím a obchodem. Douglas chce nebohé dívce pomoci, a tak jí nabídne sňatek. Nemoc mu ovšem zabrání přijet na obřad, a tak je manželství uzavřeno v zastoupení. Krátce poté lord umírá a Skylar odjíždí na jeho farmu v Dakotě. Je novomanželka, a přece vdova. Už to je dostatečně znepokojivé pomyšlení, ale největší šok na Skylar teprve čeká: její dostavník je přepaden a ona skončí v dřevěném domku s únoscem, z něhož se vyklube syn lorda Douglase – a podle oddacího listu i její právoplatný manžel! Starý pán to jistě myslel dobře, ale skutečnost se od jeho představ povážlivě liší. Skylar drásá vědomí, že se nestala uznávanou dámou, nýbrž chotí divocha. Adam „Jestřáb“ Douglas má ženu, o kterou nestál a která vnesla do jeho života zmatek. Uchystal osud pro Skylar další krutou zkoušku, anebo jí přece jenom ukáže svou vlídnější tvář?
