DETAILS :
Once caught, it’s harder still to let a pirate goWhen Annalisa Townsend’s ship is set upon by pirates in search of her father’s treasure, one of the crew, James Sterling, discovers her in the hold. When he moves to take her necklace, she begs him not to, as it is all she has left of her mother. He accepts a kiss in exchange for the necklace. “A fair trade, m’lady,” he tells her afterward, before disappearing.A year later, with a forged letter of marque, Annalisa is intent on hunting down the wretched James Sterling and reclaiming her father’s treasure from him. But now she’s in danger of him stealing something far more vulnerable this time: her heart. The narrative remains focused on its core themes while allowing room for exploration. Supporting ideas enhance rather than distract from the main story. This balance contributes to a sense of unity throughout the book.
