I was planning on reading the first book in the series (typical me - reading out of order - but I think I'm going to just move along onto other books. ( ) El pirata Pagan, un ser infame y capaz de las más grandes atrocidades, es al mismo tiempo un ídolo para los pobres, con quienes comparte los tesoros que roba a los ricos. El marqués de Cainewood promete vengar a su hermano, muerto a manos del malvado pirata. Con el fin de introducirse en ese mundo marginal y trabar relación con el asesino, comienza a frecuentar las tabernas preferidas por los de su calaña. En uno de esos antros conoce a Jade, una belleza de rizada cabellera rojiza y ojos verdes que, acosada por unos asesinos, recurre a él confundiéndolo con Pagan. A partir de entonces se creará entre ambos una relación extraña, y el marqués sucumbirá a los encantos de la alocada joven, hundiéndose en un abismo de pasiones y ardiente desenfreno. This is another one I had marked as read that I have no recollection actually reading. It follows in the series behind The Lion’s Lady. And while I really enjoyed that one, this one wasn’t quite as good to me. The couple was kind of unrealistic and annoying. As were the events in the story. It was a bit too far fetched. And I never fell for this couple. The chapters seemed incredibly long and drawn out and they were hard to get through. This one had a fair amount of potential but ended up falling a bit short for me. I liked the heroine, though her trust issues went on forever (and I'm not certain they were really even justified to begin with) and that definitely started to wear, and she went a little down hill once she started guarding the hero's pride all the time. *eye roll* But the hero just didn't connect with me I guess. I'm willing to overlook some flaws, but this guy was constantly losing his temper and was kind of selfish, and there were multiple instances where he 'wanted to strangle the heroine with his bare bands' or something. =/ I'm just not terribly impressed by that sort of man. To me, rather than manly they just come off desperate to be seen as dominant. This book is 30 years old, so probably most of my problems with it stem from aspects that were common in HR at that time but that writers have largely moved past now. I'll likely still finish this series though. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
