Marisol Castellan is in trouble--again. Against her pirate father's orders, she snuck off their ship to intercept a message meant for a rival captain, one that offers a clue to the whereabouts of her estranged brother Monte.

Pirate captain Blade Tyburn is not pleased to find the letter he's been waiting for is missing. He's even less pleased when he discovers the thief is a raven-haired beauty who bewitches his senses and muddles his thinking. The note gives the location of a silver-laden ship that'll make his fortune; Blade must find it, and if that means bringing Marisol along on the voyage, so be it.

Marisol believes Monte sails on the very ship Blade is to meet and strikes a deal with the handsome rogue. If he will give her passage to her brother, she will give him the exact location he needs. And both will get more than they expected...

      A rollicking pirates-of-the-Caribbean romance is fatally marred by sheer implausibility and torturous turns of phrase (“The menacing malignity hung heavy in the air surrounding him”; “Those green eyes cauterized her composure”). The stereotypically feisty pirate’s daughter, Marisol Castellan, seeking information regarding the fate of her missing brother, steals a treasured possession from the handsome, angst-filled pirate captain Blade Tyburn and offers to return it if he’ll allow her aboard his vessel in pursuit of a silver-laden treasure ship, the Gloria. She is prepared for neither the mystery that surrounds the Gloria’s fate nor the mutual passion she finds with Blade. With an improbable family of feuding pirates at the center of an equally unlikely seaborne soap opera, even a bloody series of made-for-film action scenes cannot disguise the predictable plot twists or overcome the gruesomely awkward prose.

      Maria Hunt is a British nurse in German-occupied Brussels, Belgium, during World War I, caring for all of the injured, including British soldiers, and helping those who can to escape. When Lt. John Bennet arrives with a serious leg injury, he rescues Maria from an overly affectionate German soldier. Then, together, they must flee. VERDICT The rarity of the 1914 time frame makes this romance novel stand out. A well-written, sweet, though predictable story, it is impressive in its historical detail. [Xpress Reviews, 12/14/12.]--Susan Hayes, Chattahoochee Valley Libs., Columbus, GA
