    <body><![CDATA[I did enjoy this book and felt it was fairly well-written.  This is the first book I have read by this author.  However, I did feel like the premise was a bit far-fetched.  It was difficult to see how the author was going to resolve the fact that the heroine was a PIRATE...without actually killing h...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51435864">more...</a>]]></body>

With the imagery Tyndall incorporates into her writing, you can almost taste the salty spray of sea wat...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/43808126">more...</a>]]></body>

It's a lot put into one book but overall it all played out nicely. It was an easy, pleasurable read I would recommend ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47784548">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Romance novels are not my typical genre but this one caught and held my attention for the entire book. The Christian theme was a question mark in my mind, but this book incoporated it without being too preachy, over the top, or evangelestical. I would definitely read the next book in this series.]]></body>
