Pirate Romance discussion

Right now, I'm reading Black Swan Rising. I won it on Goodreads, and I'm loving it!

This one looks so good Jana! let me know what you think when your done..

Oh, I will! The writing is absolutely beautiful. It's by a husband and wife duo. She's a mystery writer and he's a poet. It's wonderful! I'll be posting an in-depth review as soon as I'm done!

Sounds good..III look forward to it!

Sandi, I just posted my review for Black Swan Rising. You had mentioned you were interested in reading it!

Thanks Jana I will check it out!

I started reading yesterday... it's excellent, can't put it down. Bound by the Heart is much more of a bodice-ripper (heroine is raped by the hero several times) than the Wind & the Sea, so it's not for everyone. I still think the Wind & the Sea is Marsha Canham's best work because it has such a great "adventure" feel to it.

Both are must-read pirate/ship captain romances IMO... And since they are now available as e-books, there is no excuse not read them. :P

I really must invest in a reader..it would solve my "HTF"s to get as well as save space..which means more books!? LOL!..maybe not..some are the same price as a regular book are they not?

That is exactly why I have not invested in an e-reader yet... there is not much (if at all) of a price difference between paperback and e-book. And I can usually find the paperback way cheaper via UBS, thrift stores, and ebay.

I've found it in EPUB format as well, so yay for me (since I don't have a kindle). Can't wait to read it. :)

And yes, the prices for some ebooks are ridiculous since they're so restrictive - DRM and the like. I usually buy the cheap stuff, $3 and under.

Um..without sounding ..dumb..whats a EPUB format?
*sigh* maybe this ol'bird should just stick to books..they open..they close..wha-la!

It's one of the many formats that some ereaders can handle: .epub, .rb, .mobi, .pdf, .txt, .doc, .rtf, etc.

EPUB = electronic publication :)

"whipppp" right over the head that went! yup..III stick to the books for now..unless it comes with special instructions for "format-computer" challanged people. :(

AH...that I understand! :)

Next to "The wind & the sea", my fav MC is "The last arrow". All of her books are fan freakin' tastic. I wish she was still active.

The major reason I've been draggin my big feet 'bout buying E-reader is if / when I do buy, it'll be the rapid death of my credit card haha... My savings account will drop down to negative 'cuz I'll be clicking away like there's no tomorrow.

So true Verity! Yikes!

Just started reading for my TBR challange...not so sure about this we shall see.

I am reading by Sabrina Jeffries I am enjoying it so far.

I remember that one as quite humorous :)

I am reading by Eloisa James

I tried to read and but I couldn't get into them, even though they got good reviews on goodreads.

Her books are romantic suspense aren't they?

That happens to me a lot too (not being able to get through "5-star" books)! I don't know if I just have way different tastes in historical romances than most, or what.

But Rosemarie, what was it that turned you off of those two books? (I haven't read them. Just curious about your take on it!)

I am reading by Connie Mason good so far....

Rosemarie you might enjoy if you haven't already read it.
