The language was a little too modern for the period. However, if you don't mind that, it was well written overall, with few grammatical or punctuation errors. I enjoyed that the hero and heroine weren't your typical lord and lady. Overall, it was an enjoyable read. ( ) I made it to 4% before I DNFd it. There is no way I can take a whiny emo pirate seriously. To wit: Masud sighed heavily. ���Just grant me one favor.��� He set the bottle aside, and Nicholas heard him withdraw something from inside his frock coat. ���Take this with you.��� There is just no way I can get past this. I thought I could, so I put it down for a while, then came back to it because...PIRATES! But pirates buckle swashes and swash buckles, and this guy won't touch a pistol. I want pirates to, you know, ACT like pirates. Oh, and I doubt anyone in 1741 actually ever said, "...take the bastard out." Not a new premise to have the protagonists chained together. It's been done before in film and tv, but it was dealt with quite well here. The story hurtles along at a good pace as the relationship between Nick and Samantha grows. I felt that Sam's nemesis was dealt with rather quickly, but on the whole this a really good read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
