Exciting! May 14, 2008
I absolutely LOVED this book! One of her best and the first one she wrote. I'd like to see her do a book about Rene, another character in the book who I rather liked.
Captain, you can take me aboard anytime! November 12, 2007
From the back cover-
Catherine Amberly knows all too well how contemptuously Ransom Du Prey secretly views women. As captain and cabin boy they lived together in easy intimacy, and the bold and buccaneering Ransom never suspected that his loyal "Cat" was a mere girl! Then the golden Catherine jumped ship and traded her breeches for ball gowns.
When Ransom pursues her with arrogant ardor, she vows to teach him a lesson in love. Strangely familiar, yet utterly mystifying, she teases and tempts him until his blood runs as hot as any love-struck lad's. And as the sultry Barbados sun stirs their passion, Ransom swears to show his elusive sea-siren the consequences of playing with the fire of a man's desires!
Ooooohhh this is a keeper! So delicious! It has everything that I want in a "pirate" romance. An slightly scarred arrogant alpha male hero with definite ideas about women and his headstrong and spirited heroine with definite ideas on where he should put those ideas. All set against the sultry backdrop of the Caribbean.
A book with plenty of action. Tons of sexual tension. And a plot that literally sucks you into a one sitting read. The only riduculous part was that Ransom did not figure out that his cabin boy of several months, "Cat", and Catherine were one and the same. Call it the Lois Lane syndrome but it didn't, surprisingly, annoy me at all. Ransom was just not used to noticing anyone closely until he saw Catherine as a woman, even though he always felt a bit of affection for "Cat". So I wasn't bothered by it.
There is some very good villainy here but the romance outshines (as it should!) it all. Just very romantic and not one of those books where the hero tells the heroine he loves her on the last page. Lots of good love scenes too!
Go hunt down this fabulous book because nobody's borrowing my copy!:0
