Sweet Forever
Julianna Doran caught her first soul searing glimpse of sea captain Brom Vanderzee when she was a girl of fifteen playing with a Quija board. He was a vision who would haunt her dreams for years. Julianna knew the days of pirate ships were over, but where else would she find a man so enticingly handsome, so boldly dangerous, so . . . forbidden?
The years pass for Julianna. About to be wed, she grabs her last chance to understand the wild yearning of her heart. Returning to the haunted Hudson River mansion where she first encountered her dashing sea captain, Julianna is rewarded by one exquisitely beautiful and undeniably real night of passion with Brom Vanderzee. But the scoundrel disappears afterwards without a trace! Julianna must find him, if only to feel once again the heat of his demanding lips on hers --- and she crosses the boundaries of her world to join him in his, becoming this pirate's woman in the whirlwind of magic and adventure of a love strong enough to last for all time!

I was in the mood for a pirate romance after watching “Our flag means death”, and this came up as a good one. It’s not very pirate-y. It is a sweet story, and actually deals with the time travel pretty well. Characters are fine; not particularly witty or sweet, but good. I‘ve read about some of her other books, and topics alone, I think I’d read her again.

Time and again
This story is so real and revealing from beginning to end . The characters become part of you, and you become part of the story. Such a good read!

This was a reread, like maybe the fourth or fifth time. I read it when it first came out and it always stuck with me, mainly because the story takes place in and around places I've lived. And, well, pirates... :)
