Publisher Description
1906
Beth Tremayne has always been drawn to adventure. During her childhood, she fed that desire by exploring every inch of the Isles of Scilly. Now, after stumbling across an old collection of letters and a map buried on her family's property, she's found more adventure than she ever anticipated in the hunt for pirate treasure. But in order to discover where the clues lead, she must search alongside Lord Sheridan, a man she finds insufferable.
Sheridan has spent years pursuing whatever archaeological interests pique his imagination. And when he discovers that Beth's search connects with one of his far-removed pirate ancestors, he can't help getting involved. Plus, he finds her irresistible, even though she insists he stole a prized possession of hers.
As they work together following different clues and drawing closer to danger, they start to piece together a story of tragic love and piratical adventure. But which treasure will bring the greatest surprise--the one they find in each other or the one just out of their reach?
Customer Reviews
A good book overall
This is book two in a three book series. This book and the first book in the series are the only books I have read by this author.
Pros: I did really enjoy Sheridan and his funny personality. And I enjoyed the romance that developed in the story. The author has added a second romance to both books in the series. That helps add something interesting to the plot. I love the island atmosphere and all the characters and community.
Cons: I must admit I am tiring of all the pirate treasure that is being dragged out through the series. I like a series in which each book can be read as a standalone. In this case, it appears much of the plot won’t be closed until the third book. Although I am tired of that part, I will still read the third book because I am a bit OCD that way.
