GENRE: Romance
FIRST SENTENCE: I have been told, by sources most reliable, of an incredible hero.
SUMMARY: [From barnesandnoble.com] He is the Sea Wolf, a dreaded pirate who stops English navy ships and frees impressed American sailors. Few know Morgan Drake's name, and none guesses at his past. Except, that is, a nosy Savannah reporter named Serenity James. Determined to protect his secrets at any cost, Morgan sets sail for Savannah... and Serenity.
All her life, Serenity has longed for adventure. As a woman, though, she's lucky even to be tolerated in her father's newspaper office. Then she's kidnapped by the bold, sexy pirate whose story fired her imagination, and his embrace Serenity finds adventure beyond her wildest dreams.
REASON FOR READING: I seem to be in a "Pirate books written by Scottish authors" kick.
THOUGHTS: Not bad, not great. The story was old with only a few new twists. The characters were well written and multi-dimensional. They did not, however, leap off the pages. The writing was mediocre but included some descriptive detail. To me, the best part of the novel was the dialog. MacGregor can write arguments like no one else.
MISCELLANEOUS: The guy on the cover was really not attractive in the least.
