review 1: Definitely not one of the better books I have read. Amber has a lot of audacity in the beginning. Her ship gets taken by pirates and she is taken prisoner, however, demands her trunks be moved to the other ship before she goes. If this was real she would have been kiled. Also, the book lacked action and was only from Amber's POV so some interesting things that happened were just explained by another character. Sex scenes were sensual but not very explicit so if thats what your looking for dont bother.
review 2: So glad I picked this up, I'm a big fan of pirate adventure/romance books anyway so this really was a treat to read.Lady Amber Townsend has unfortunately lost her mother and thought it's not a nice thing to think of she must follow what the Will states
... more only her late father shares some unexpected details that she never knew of, that his willful daughter must marry well or lose it all to her cad of an Uncle. Desperate for that not to happen she takes the first ship she can find to take her to England and find a suitable suitor to save the families Estate. Thinking nothing of the fact she's on a Merchant vessel Amber settles in for a month of boring sailing, that is until it is captured by the dreaded Pirate Captain El Tigre.A woman on a ship is seen as an unlucky thing but that's nothing compared to being on a Pirate ship.This pirate adventure is set at a good pace and with it being mostly set at sea you would think how much could possibly happen but there's enough content and drama that I was never bored.The main characters of Amber and Logan are vibrant and enigmatic who have great chemistry and dialogue. I was quite surprised at Logans's gentlemanly nature and you'd expect a Pirate to be crass but there's a reason for it which I won't reveal.Overall I very much enjoyed this story but there were some points that irked me a little but didn't take away from the story.1. All of the crew came to love Amber and seamlessly excepted her which realistically wouldn't happen.2. Not much was mentioned of true pirate ways such as sickness, violence and brutality but it wasn't that type of tale to mention those things.3. I think there should have been some huge dramatic moment such as a death to a main character but that's probably just my dark sense of humor coming out.Can't recommend this enough to readers of Historical romance and wish there was more from the auhor less

I really enjoyed the book, but I found the ending disappointing, which stopped me from giving 5*.

Very surprised. Good lead and supporting characters, fun story and a steamy romance.
