review 1: love this bookAnadreya Richardson berusaha kabur dari tahanan raja Inggris utk menemukan ayahkan serta member peringatan namun sialnya dia malah kepergok oleh Lucien, The Marquis of Canderlay yang ternyata adalah orang yang membuat Anadreya / Dreya ditahan yang tidak mereka sadari pada awalnya. Dan Lucien yg dari awal melihat Dreya dan merasa penasaran dgn seorg wanita yang bukannya menikmati pesta yg diadakan sang Raja tp malah berusaha keluar dan terkesan mencurigakan sehingga mengikuti Dreya yang akhirnya membiarkan Dreya kabur bukan karena Dreya menodongkan pistol kearahnya, karena dengan posisinya dan kekuatan seorang lelaki, Lucien sanggup melawan Dreya. Namun karena ada alasan.Anadreya Richardson, prisoner, attempted to escape from the king of England to find her f... moreather and warning him but unfortunately he just got caught by Lucien, The Marquis of Canderlay which was the one who makes Anadreya / Dreya detained although they did not realize at first. And Lucien who from the beginning was curious when seeing Dreya, a woman who instead of enjoying the party that held by the King but seek out and seemed suspicious then followed her. Finally he let Dreya not because Dreya pointing a gun directly at him because with the position and strength of a man, Lucien able to resist Dreya. But there is another reasonDan inilah awal dari pertemuan dan yang juga awal takdir mereka..And this is their first meeting and their first fate..5 tahun kemudian..5 years later..Lucien yang bertugas menemukan serta menangkap MacGregor atas tuduhan menghianati Raja Inggris malah mengalami kecelakaan saat dia berlayar bersama pasukan dan tenggelam sampai seseorang memanggil namanya “Sebastian”, nama baptisnya yang tidak pernah didengar olehnya sejak. Dreya menemukan Lucien saat Sebastian (anjingnya) menyalak saat menemukan tubuh Lucien yang terapung dilaut. Lucien mengalami kebutaan dan hilang ingatan. Lucien is tasked with finding and capturing MacGregor on charges of betraying the King of England but he got an accident when sailed with his troops and sinking up to someone calling his name "Sebastian", his baptismal name that he had never heard for so long. Dreya find Lucien when Sebastian barking at Lucien's body that found floating at see. Lucien suffered blindness and memory loss.Dreya terpaksa merawat Lucien dan membuat mereka bersama dan dekat. Awalnya mereka masih belum menyadari bahwa mereka telah bertemu 5 tahun yang lalu. Walaupun mereka sering bertengkar, namun mereka tidak memungkiri bahwa mereka merasakan perasaan saling tertarik bahkan selalu ingin bertemu. Namun Dreya selalu mengganggap bahwa Lucien adalah seorang bajak laut terlebih lagi setelah dia menyadari siapa Lucien yang sebenarnya dan karena takut jika nanti Lucien ingat siapa dirinya, Dreya memutuskan menawan Lucien di tahanan bawah tanah yang membuat Lucien bingung dan marah terlebih lagi setelah dia berjuang menyelamatkan anjing Dreya yang hampir mati dan adegan yang terjadi setelah penyelamatan tersebut (walau tidak sampai tidur bareng, tapi adegannya lumayan hot ) memutuskan menawan Dreya sebagai balas dendam saat dirinya diselamatkan sepupu Dreya yang ternyata teman laut Lucien dan juga karena dia merasa cemburu terhadap Dreya dan sepupunya yang dikira adalah sepasang kekasih.Dreya forced to care for Lucien and keep them together and became close. Initialy they still did not realize that they had met five years ago. Although they often quarreled, but they do not deny that they feel attracted to each other even always wanted to meet. However Dreya always assume that Lucien was a pirate even more so after he realized who the real is Lucien and fear if next time Lucien remember who he is, so Dreya decided Dreya to arrest Lucien in dungeons that make Lucien confused and angered even more so after he fought to save Dreya’s Dog which almost dead and the scene that occurs after the rescue (though they do not to sleep together, but the scene is pretty hot ) so he decided to arrest Dreya back to the dungeons as revenge when he was rescued by Dreya’s cousin who was a Lucien’s friend and also because he was jealous of them and which he is supposed them a loversSetelah kabur, Lucien menemui Raja Inggris dan malah mendapati bahwa sang Raja sdh bekerjasama dengan seseorang yang sangat jahat untuk menangkap ayah Dreya dan sebagai imbalannya mendapatkan Dragon Castil (tempat Dreya tinggal). Lucien yang mulai menyadari bahwa dia mencintai Dreya serta tidak dapat hidup tanpanya dan juga menyadari hal yang sebenarnya terjadi. Dia akhirnya memutuskan untuk menemukan ayah Dreya dan segera melakukan penyelamatan bahkan melupakan gelar dan property keluarganya yang habis karena kekalahan ayahnya dalam berjudi.After the escape, Lucien met the King of England and found that the King already worked with someone who is very wicked to catch Dreya’s father and in return to get a Dragon Castil (Dreya’s Castle). Lucien began to realize that he loves Dreya and can not live without her and also realize what is actually happening so he decided to find her father to rescue Dreya and even he don’t care about his family’s title and property that are depleted due to the defeat of his father in the gambling.Berhasilkah Lucien menemukan ayah Dreya dan menyelamatkan Dreya sebelum terlambat karena ternyata Dreya sudah ditahan oleh orang jahat tersebut? Lalu bagaimana akhir hubungan Lucien dan Dreya yang dari awal dilandasi kesalahpahaman dan kebencian walau mereka tidak dapat memungkiri bahwa ketertarikan diantara mereka sudah ada sejak awal mereka bertemu dan berkembang secara pelan dan berkelanjutan?Did Lucien found MacGregor and rescued Dreya before it's too late because Dreya has been detained by the bad guys? Then how about their relationship that based on misunderstanding and hatred even though they can not deny that the attraction between them has been around since the beginning they met and developed slowly and sustainable?Bagaimana pendapat anda tentang crita ini?What do you think about this story?Ada banyak hal yang membuat aku suka dengan buku ini : dari awal membaca saya sudah yakin bahwa ceritanya pasti bagus, mulai membaca saya merasa ingin terus membaca dan berbagai macam rasa muncul : mulai dari kesenangan menikmati interaksi/ketertarikan antara Lucien dengan Dreya, pertengkaran mereka padahal rindu jika tidak bertemu, tambahan pemeran / pemeran pembantu seperti seorang bidan yang bisa meramal masa depan yang juga bisa menebak rasa yang dimiliki oleh Lucien dan Dreya yang selalu mereka pungkiri, sepupu Dreya yang juga mengambil peran penting bahkan membuat saya berpikir semoga ada kisah tentang Derek nantinya dan yang terakhir adalah penasaran dengan ending cerita dan terkadang cemas dan berharap tidak terjadi hal buruk apapun dengan Dreya. Dan satu lagi saat digambarkan bahwa ternyata Lucien melepaskan Dreya karena dia sudah tertarik padanya sejak awal bertemu 5 tahun yang lalu hem…There are many things that make me love with this book: from the beginning i reading this book, I was convinced that the story must be good, started reading it, I felt I like to continue reading and a variety of flavors emerged : from the pleasure of enjoying the interaction / attraction between Lucien and Dreya, their argument but feel longing if not met, additional player / supporting player as a midwife who can predict the future is also able to guess a sense of which is owned by Lucien and Dreya which they always deny, Dreya cousins who are also taking an important role even made me think hopefully there is a story about Derek later and the last one is curious about the ending of the story and sometimes anxious and hope there is no worse thing happen with Dreya. And one more thing when Lucien let Dreya go that because he was interested in him since the beginning they met five years ago, um ...Dan buat yang suka dengan kisah bajak laut atau romance yang terjadi dilaut, sangat direkomen untuk membaca kisah ini. And for you who love with pirate story or romance that occurs at sea, it is recommended to read this story.Happy Reading ^^
review 2: The only thing that prevents me from giving this book four or five stars is the slow moving love story. While it's understood that Dreya--our heroine--and Lucian--our hero--got to know one another while he recuperated on the Macgregor clan's island, but it felt as if the reader was left longing for something else. The adventure was certainly there...the staunch, staid Englishman who begins to understand another point of view...the spunky and independent heroine. But somehow, the love story itself missed the mark a bit. Where was the fire and passion between them? Their encounters fell a bit flat. I didn't turn the last page with a happy sigh. Instead, my reaction was more, "Okay."The author's writing is superb, and I believe as she writes more, her books will only get better with each one. Overall, it was an enjoyable read. less
