I couldn't help but have a sinking feeling in my stomach that this story wouldn't end happily, but I'm glad that it did! That being said, this story really does need to be run through an editor - there were so many typos and missing or extra words that it was getting annoying at some point. I have read unbeta'd fanfiction that had less mistakes than this published work. That's the only reason I rated it 3 stars, otherwise it might have been 4.

I'd have been a brilliant pirate I reckon, which is probably why the Golden Age of piracy fascinates me so much and why I absolutely loved every bit of this historical romance.

While I didn't read the original form of Captain Merric when he first appeared as part of a pirate anthology, I'm delighted to have got the chance to read this version.

It's packed with clever plotting, great narrative, gorgeous dialogue and beautifully descriptive writing which conjures up brilliant azure blue skies over emerald green seas dotted with bleached white sandy beaches and a lush tropical paradise filled with colourful characters.

I loved Daniel and his long lost love Edward, and while this is only moderately steamy, it still has enough emotional and sexy moments to keep me happy.
