Query: Warning! Really savage!

The heroine in this book is the most battered woman in all the books I've ever read. You would think Ginny in SEET SAVAGE LOVE has endured everything imaginable. Well, Elise here outdid her!Let's see. Violently deflowered by the so called "hero" who mistook her for a peasant girl. Tricked into a false marriage. Raped by a vile pirate captain, gang raped by his crew, then miscarried. Lived as Jean Lafitte's mistress. Raped and reaquired by hero. Met hero's jealous wife. Raped by hero's brother-in-law. Sold as a quadroon slave. Raped, beaten, and resold many times over. Hunted and branded! Forced by the hero to spy and sleep with another. Raped by the hero and got preganant again. Inprisoned and tried as a spy. Returned home to raise child alone...The auther is talented and the characters were well drawn. This is her first book, and none of her other ones are as savage.
