Don't Tempt Me - Julie Ortolon

Don't Tempt Me is the final book in the Pearl Island Trilogy, and I am kind of sad to see it come to an end. The characters are all distinct and the setting and the history are great. Adrian St. Claire is the sexy chef at the Pearl Island B&B, which he and his sisters run. He is the descendent of the woman whose husband owned the house and her and her lover's ghost can't go on until the treasure that was lost in the cove is recovered. But, to find the treasure they need help. Jackie Taylor is the descendent of the lover. She owns her own "pirate" ship and is more interested in running cruises along the Texas coast than chasing lost booty. That and she would rather her past not be dredged up. Finally, Jackie is enticed into helping and soon not only do they have something other than treasure hunts and casual flirtation in mind, but they learn the most important lesson of all.
