The Pirate’s Lady
Tyler James is getting married and
leaving her job as Dr. Hoyt McKee’s
nurse. Hoyt can’t allow Tyler to just
walk out of his life and they find
themselves in each other’s arms. At
last.
Samantha Howard is appalled when
her father tells her of her impending
marriage to Britmore MacDonald,
especially since she must travel
from England to the Carolinas for it
to happen. How can she possibly give up her lover, Tommy,
the stable boy?
REVIEW: It was definitely steamy and they kind of had a
complicated relationship. Because he was married and
apparently in a loveless marriage, and she engaged to
someone else and both basically realizing on her last day at
the office that she couldn’t really walk away and he coming to
terms with the fact he was in love with her and had known for
some time but denied it until he couldn’t.
Brittmore MacDonald, known as Capt’n B while he is at sea,
is horrified when his mother tells him of the arrangements
that have been made for his marriage to Samantha Howard.
When his pirate ship raids the Spanish ship she is sailing
on, Samantha becomes his to take. Once he has tasted the
honey of her lips, he must find a way to get her to his parents’
plantation so that she can become his wife, without letting his
parents know what he does once the Merry Lady is out of sight
of land.
They were good conflicted and slightly tormented characters.
She the good girl, wanting to please family and him, holding on
to his marriage because of his wife, who was actually jealous
of her and her fiancée who was jealous of her boss. They’ll be
fine once the air clears and everything is settled. It was a good
read.

REVIEW: Samantha Howard has to set sail for the Americas,
because out of his 12 children, she is the sixth daughter and her
father could not afford a dowry for her. She doesn’t count on her
ship being captured, however, by a pirate she will eventually
starts fall for, and that said pirate turns out to be her fiancé who
is living a secret double life on the high seas. He realizes, who
she is the moment he captures her and she reveals her name,
but he has to keep it a secret from his crew and also from her
until the time is right to reveal all. They eventually get along
rather nicely and she finally manages to get to the Carolinas.
And he has to find a way once he gets home to come to terms
with the fact that he’d actually kidnapped his fiancé. It had
adventure, some action and fun. A feisty English heroine and
a dashing pirate who tried to conceal his two separate lives.
Even his first mat was funny and got a girl in the bargain. If
you want fun on the high seas you’ll definitely enjoy this little
adventure.
