Always loved swashbucklers ever since seeing Louis Jordan wielding his sword in those old black and white movies when I was young. This book reminded me of Captain Blood, the old Errol Flynn movie. Still love those kind of movies and books like this one that bring back the romance of an other wise brutal era on the high seas. Duncan Rourke is a wonderful character; handsome, dangerous, and romantic. Then there is the the swashbuckling, the sword play and fighting. Of course, Pirates includes the romance that we all have dreamed about as little girls. Since it's during the American Revolution and Duncan Rourke is a privateer, that means the British aren't giving up without a fight. Really liked this story...think I'll settle in later and reread Pirates. ( ) I kept scratching my head and thinking to myself why does this storyline sound so familiar? Was it the hero's scarred back from a flogging by a sadistic English officer? Or maybe it was because a 20th century woman goes back 200 years in time only to find love and romance and then returns to her present time, pregnant with her 18th century husband's child - but then rejoins him again two hundred years earlier? Sheesh! http://ktleyed.blogspot.com/2010/04/pirates-by-linda-lael-miller.html sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Bestselling author Linda Lael Miller sweeps readers away--and through time itself--when a thoroughly modern woman encounters a dangerous, dashing eighteenth-century buccaneer. The result is a sensuous, joyous, utterly heartwarming tale of love. Phoebe Turlow needs to get out of Seattle and forget about the man she just divorced, her dwindling finances, and the lonely nights that stretch ahead of her. But she can't foresee what awaits her on Paradise Island... Duncan Rourke is known to historians as "the pirate patriot." He's been dead for two centuries--or at least he's supposed to be, until Phoebe Turlow steps out of a van, into a run-down island hotel, and into his world. Neither Phoebe nor her sexy pirate can envision the glorious adventure that is about to unfold. They understand only that they have found each other, and a grand passion, across the chasm of time...and they fear only the moment when the magic they have discovered may vanish. Passionate, emotional, and completely entrancing, Pirates will steal your heart. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
