  22. Patty G (verified owner)

    A very well written and engaging story. The characters are fresh, adding an extra touch of realism. The dialogue? Proper period speech. Background? Enough to mentally see but not so much it detracts from the story. Very well rounded. While not expected, it delivered a satisfying ending.

  23. Edna

    A plus! Well written. Satisfying story.

  24. F K

    Nice love story. Good plot twists. Will buy others.

  25. Yayha

    Just finished this book. LOVED it! Sheena is such a pistol and Brant, hubba hubba hunky. Wish I could meet a guy like him for real. I felt every emotion, anger, happiness, love, frustration, fear. Oh, and her brother Thane is a keeper too. Blayne was funny but so is the old guys. Loved the end where Sheena and Thane learn about their father they never knew. Oh! And Sheena’s being kidnapped! How could I forget that! Such a heroic rescue!

  26. Rosa A

    One needs to appreciate the dedication this writer has. Thoroughly thought out plots and twists. Very well written.

  27. Sue K

    If you love love stories, you’re going to love this one. Brant is a beast at pursuing Sheena, but because men used her mother before she dies, Sheena doesn’t trust any of them. Loved how Sheena stowed away on Brant’s ship not knowing it was his, but how once she finds out, she sneakily torments him in his cabin. There’s just so much action in this story! You won’t want to put it down.

  28. Ashley R

    I was told about Debra A Russell’s stories and checked them out for myself. VERY glad I did. You can tell the research that’s put into each story. I’ve read two and am ordering more today.

    Has anyone mentioned Blane yet??? Brant’s brother Blane is such a stinker. He’s witty, charming and loves tormenting Brant. Ad he’s not above enjoying Sheena gettng even with Brant either. In fact, he helps!

  35. Val Valeene (verified owner)

    Who couldn’t love a hunky man pursuing you with flowers, jewelry, and an offer of marriage? Captain Brant Branhard is a man among men. Strong, decisive and once he makes up his mind to have Sheena, all bets are off. He’s willing to use any means to make her his wife. Sheena? Doesn’t trust men at all. Doesn’t really like them much either. But Brant’s overtures eventually charm her into relenting… Until Sheena catches another woman coming out if his hotel room the morning after he took Sheena’s vritue….

  36. Rosania DeLucca (verified owner)

    A wonderful love story. Far from his home country in the Americas, Captain Brant Branhard finds instant infatuation with a feisty, beautiful, sensual woman on foreign shores. Sheena Worden, his fascination, is a young, poor English serving maid with a chip on her shoulder against handsome, smooth talking men. Forced to raise her younger brother, Thane, her life is already too hectic, and stressful enough between tending tables at a local Inn and chasing after Thane, with intentions of keeping him from mischief, to be bothered by a pursuing sea captain.

    Thus, their turbulent relationship begins. And by the ending? You’ll hate there isn’t more! Yes, it’s that good!

  37. Brandy Whiskey (verified owner)

    An entertaining read. True to life characters with wonderful period dialect, scenery, clothes. I especially enjoyed the interactions between all the characters. You will smile, chuckle, frown, cry, and finally give a give sigh of satisfaction after reading the last line.

    I find some of the best stories to read by checking out authors who’s work I’ve never read. Imagine my delight finding Debra A Russell’s website. This is third I’ve read and I loved it. The romance immediately caught my attention then I was taken on an adventure I became happily immersed in. The ending? Completely not expected. What an extra treat.
