The Ransome Trilogy
review 1: The back of the book doesn't do it justice - it is amazing! And its not just the suspense of what will happen to Charlotte but who really is Salvador and why does he want to protect Julia? In reading all 3 parts of the trilogy I will say that you will enjoy this book much better if you read part 1 and 2 first. Especially the last chapter when you're introduced to a couple you haven't heard of since part 1. What I really loved was the progression of Ransom and Julia's feelings for each other. Part 2 makes you realize they are strong but its not until they are separated from each other and Ransom realizes he must choose between looking for his sister or his wife that he releases his full feelings and allows them to show to his wife and to his shipmates. What he says to her w... morehen they are reunited is beautiful and how he's willing to give it all up for her is amazing (what a journey from the first book!) but also Julia comes to realize what kind of a wife she will truly be and if she really loves him how she'd never let him give up who he is for her. Not to be minimized is the growing love between Charlotte and Ned - their arguments are hilarious! And how Charlotte still sneaks out to work as a midshipmen made me laugh. I loved the logic in the story of Salvador, who he is and what that means to Julia, Ransom and Julia's father. What happened to Julia abroad a Pirates ship was believable to me, we couldn't expect her to be treated well and I think her suffering after being rescued did much to add to Ransoms love for her and need to protect her. I loved the sneak peak of their future life in the last chapter when the novel skipped forward another 20+ years. A good read indeed!! Once I started it I couldn't put it down!
review 2: The final book in the Ransome Trilogy and a really great series overall. My favorite in the series was the first book by far. I really did enjoy all the sea faring and pirates involved in the later books though. The last book really went a teensy bit darker with the evilness of one pirate but it made it that much better. I do look forward to reading more from this author. She's so entertaining! Between her and another fantastic author, MaryLu Tyndall, I shall never be short on reading Christian themed swashbuckling romances! less
