review 1: An unsolved mystery separates ex-privateersman Captain Brogan Talvis from his lost son--his only living relation, his only family. Shortly before her tragic demise, his wife abandoned their infant to strangers, refusing to reveal the child's whereabouts. Now, three years later, Brogan has discovered the boy at the home of a shipbuilder's daughter, Lorena Huntley. Lorena guards a dark secret about her young charge. She finds herself falling for the heroic captain who has come to claim his newly built ship, unaware his motive for wooing her is to befriend the boy he plans on reclaiming as his own--until the day another's evil deceit leaves her helplessly shipbound, heading toward England. As the perfect opportunity to reclaim his son unfolds, Brogan is haunted by thoughts of... more Lorena in her dire circumstance, and he is forced to make a heartrending choice between his child and the woman who has begun to capture his heart. But only his unselfish sacrifice can win him the greatest prize of all--love.Though somewhat predictable - I was surprised at certain spots of the story. I liked the way it slowly resolved one mystery only to add to another - well written and enjoyable.
review 2: This was an excellent book! I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect, and the character development was well done. The main female character wasn't too perfect, and there wasn't a whole lot of, "Why did you lie to me?" drama, as I thought would be a given from the description. I wasn't expecting anything great from this book, since I had never heard of the author before. But I have to say, it was great! It was so good, I finished it in only a few hours! I will definitely be looking forward to more from Lisa Norato. I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my fair and honest review. less
