Review "Prize of My Heart"



Summary courtesy of Bethany House Publishers

Massachusetts, 1815.
Will His Love Endure Once He Learns Her Secret?
Three years ago, Captain Brogan Talvis's late wife abandoned their son, leaving no clue as to the boy's whereabouts. After searching relentlessly, Brogan discovers his son was adopted by a New England shipbuilder. And the man's daughter, Lorena Huntley, acts as loving guardian to the child.
Lorena, who hides a dark truth, finds herself falling for the handsome captain and ex-privateer who's come to secure ownership of one of her father's ships. She's unaware of Brogan's own secret when another's deceit has her sailing toward Europe against her will.
Haunted by thoughts of Lorena in peril, Brogan is compelled to choose between the boy he longs for and the woman who has captured his heart.

Review:

I have to say I was very surprised with this book. I figured it would be a typical sweet, historical romance which I like, however with a twist at the end that really surprised me! I thought I had it all figured out but nope! I love the characters, very well-written. I have to say I like the villain. I could really feel the craziness coming off of him!

If you what a quick, uplifting read, a little escape from life, then this is a good book to check out!

  1. Sounds like a good romance, not entirely predictable.
