Summary: a nice story for an afternoon read
Review: I really enjoy this author's books. she also writes under the name Sherrilyn Kenyon and I have loved her books as well. The are always filled with humor and great passion. She makes the charactes really come to life and you feel like they've become friends of yours.In this book its about a Pirate, good thing it was named what it was huh? Anyway, The Pirate is the dreaded Sea Wolf. A man who is terrorizing the British navy and helps to free the American sailors that have been impressed by the British. His realy name is Morgan Drake and even though he is legit now he has a sorrid past as a pirate who took any ship. He is suprised to find himself the topic of a newspaper article by S.S. James in Savannah. He decides to go ther and confront the man and to find out his sources. Only when he gets to the newspaper office his world is set upon its ear. the S.S. James is not a man but a woman. Serenity James has worked for her father's newspaper for years and longs to write articles herself. She longs for adventure and for her "Pirate" to come and make that dream a reality. She never realizes thst the rude man asking about her article on the Sea Wolf, one which her father was so upset about, was her "Pirate". Once she does realize it she decided to go find out more info and ends up being kidnapped and taken aboard Morgan's ship, without his knowledge. The tale gets funnier by the page and the passions between the two get hotter and hotter. I loved the secondary characters in this book and I wonder if several of them might not have had thier own books and I may have missed them, I'll have to check.
The only part I didn't like about this book was the ending because it came to fast. I thought this book could have had a few more adventures in it and lasted a bit longer. It's a book I shall read and reread.

Summary: Exceptional
Review: I wanted to write to you personally and thank you for your wonderful story about Morgan and Serenity (as well as the other unforgettable characters). I can't tell you how long it has been since I've read a good, really good story about a pirate and your book was perfect! I have a very special place in my heart for pirates and your story about the Sea Wolf hit the spot. Stories about Pirates are few and far between and your book was exceptional! You weave your words with such passion and clarity that it left me feeling as if I was part of the story, too, for I sure felt a lot of emotion while reading your tale. I find that stories which transport the reader to the time and place in which the tale is taking place is a most rewarding reading experience. I have yet to find that special ingredient which beckons a reader into a story. You, most definitely, have found that ingredient and use it liberally. You write your tale with such clear and poignant details that one easily gets pulled into the fantasy. Your writing is a joy to read and your tale of the Sea Wolf is a very satisfying diversion for an afternoon of R&R. You are truly a talented writer and I can't thank you enough for sharing that talent with me - and your marvelous sense of humor to boot! Your tale was truly a wonderful story. You can be sure that as soon as your newest book hits the market I will be the first one in line to purchase it!

Summary: Definitely a keeper
Review: If you're reading Kinley's books, then you want to read Master of Seduction first. This is actually the sequel to it. I enjoyed A Pirate of Her Own from the very first line. Humorous and sweet, it's the kind of book that just stays with you long after you finish it. I loved Morgan and Serenity. For that matter, I wish I were Serenity. Morgan, like Jack, just took my breath away. My only complaint is that I can't wait until next year for another Kinley novel! I wish she wrote faster.

Summary: Highly Entertaining
Review: A quick fun read filled with laugh out loud humor. Serenity James wanted adventure, but never expected to get it. When her dream "pirate" walks through the door of her father's office, she's sure it's a practical joke being played. Morgan Drake wishes it were a joke being played when he finds the intrepid Ms. James on board his ship. Forced together by circumstance, these two are a delight! The light-hearted bantering is reminiscent of Teresa Medieros or Julia Quinn, the characters funny and well-drawn with a sense of action and place that is purely MacGregor. Though I like Master of Seduction better, this book is still absolutely charming.

Summary: Delightful & Refreshing...
Review: I found this book to be different than most historical romances that I have read due to the fact that the main characters, Morgan and Serenity, never really disliked each other. In most stories...the couples are thrown together by some unforeseen circumstance and they usually hate each other and then eventually fall in love. In this story they were definitley thrown together but started out with a mutual admiration and friendship that turned into a great bond. The book is well written with a very humerous touch which I find in all of Kinley's books as well as the books she writes under the name Sherrilyn Kenyon. I love being able to laugh with a great story. This book is not for the people looking for an erotic romance. It has sparce 'adult' scenes....one, to be exact. Morgan is probably the nicest 'pirate' I have ever read about which is a bit unrealistic for that time but I found him devastatingly alluring and I absolutely loved the character of Serenty because of her outgoing, defiant nature. That in itself is also a refreshing change of pace from the typical women of this era. All in all, this is a delightfully humurous romance story.

Summary: Romance
Review: This was actually the first Romance novel I have read since I was 14. (It's been six years.) It was very well written and I was pleasantly surprised to discover I enjoyed the story. It's a great escape novel, the author is well researched and witty. A great book to start reading romance.

Summary: Wishing for a bit more
Review: I liked the book but felt a bit cheated at the end. The story was a definite 4 stars until the very end where the author tied things up too quickly. Within a chapter we are told about Morgan's search, Serenity's secret and then it's all tied up in a bow...the end. I would have liked to have had more with Jake and Lorelei roles, Serenity facing her family and Morgan's "homecoming" strung out for a bit. Good beginning and middle with a too much too soon ending.

Summary: Very nicely done.
Review: ... I liked the reviews of this title and got it. What a pleasant surprise! All the characters are likable, the story moves fast and while there is more action, then sex, the plot moves and the tension is there. My only quibble (?) is that the ending did seem a little rushed. I am now going to track down the other titles under this name. Try this one, you'll like it--trust me!

Summary: Enjoyable - Quick Read
Review: All her life, Serenity James wanted to be something more than just what was expected of a woman in the late 1700's colonial America. She wanted adventure and so using her imagination she penned stories to run in her father's newspaper. Unfortunately, it came about that one of the stories she had written of the dreaded pirate - the Sea Wolf came too close to the truth. Morgan Drake was the Sea Wolf - and a lot of other names fit as well - and he was going to find out from this S.S. James just where 'he' got his information from to have written this story. Of course, the only information he got was the truth that one, S.S. James was a woman, and two, she really didn't know who the Sea Wolf was. But of course, she being highly intelligent - she surmised from his anger over the story that he, Morgan Drake, was the pirate and she would get the story of her life if she could just get him to agree to an interview. Well, on her way to beard the lion in his den - so to speak - Serenity is abducted by a friend of Morgan's who determined that she knew too much. One thing led to another, and they set sail with Serenity as the hostage. This was a cute story, with several amusing moments between two very stubborn people. Morgan and Serenity were both smitten with one another but too stubborn to admit to it so they fought instead with some hilarious dialogs. I consider this more of an amusing 'light' read to pass an afternoon, nothing that would keep me in suspense to stay up at night. What could have made this story more meaty would have been for the author to have delved more into the background of the main characters which would have given this book more of an emotional punch rather than the gloss over of some very turbulent childhoods that would have 'really' been interesting. All in all, it was a good story and well worth your time to read it.
