 | Title: The Pirate Next Door Author: Jennifer Ashley Rating: Goal: 12/60 (20% Complete) Pages: 342 Genre: Historical Romance About: Pirates add a dash of outlaw excitement and irresistible allure to two smart and lively new romances. Alexandra Alastair's new next-door neighbor, Grayson Finley, is nothing like the other men on her list of potential second husbands. Rescuing Grayson from ruffians, and then discovering that he not only has a young daughter but a pirate past, further convinces Alexandra that Grayson is far too different from the other respectable, suitable men on her list to ever be considered as proper husband material. But despite her best intentions, Alexandra discovers she can't stay away from the distractingly sexy nobleman, even if it means helping him battle a long-standing rival and find the whereabouts of a missing French king. My Thoughts: Love love love Finley. I was surprised with how humorous parts of this book were, definitely a pleasant surprise. |
