I am looking for a book that was published in 1985 or 86 or earlier. I'm pretty sure about that because I read it in the summer of 1986. And all I can remember about it was that there were two brothers, Corbin and Tarquin, and I think they were either sea captains or pirates. That's all I remember and I know it's very little but if those names jiggle any memories please let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated. wanda d.

Was it a shorter series/cateogry book or was it a longer length novel?

It was a full length historical romance. I also think both brothers had romances in the book. Please, if anyone can help, thank you.

Sorry about the funky formatting, I can't fix it. Anyhoo, who'd a thunk that there would be this many books with the hero being name Tarquin?
