This was so different than I thought it was going to be. Very dark. Extremely graphic both with violence and intimacy. At times this was difficult to read. It dragged a little in the middle, though.

I enjoyed this book a lot more than I thought I would. I wasn’t sure how much I would like a book about pirates. But it was very entertaining and after I got to the half way mark I couldn’t put it down. It had lots of very steamy scenes, and I loved the ending, it was perfect.

Bennett Sharp, Priest Farrell. & Lord Ashley Cutler.

This story was a mixed bag for me. There were parts where I was so moved and pulled in and others where I wondered if the words or descriptions were just thrown in to reach a certain word count.

Overall, I liked each of these characters. I don't feel we really got to know Priest as well through his own actions, but by the end I still liked him.

I completely understand that this was a time when a lot of the things we take for granted were frowne ...more
