Regency Pirates: Pirate Next Door [NOOK Book]

Pirate Passion

Lady Alexandra Alastair is hunting for her second husband after an unhappy first marriage. The Viscount next door seems a likely candidate, save for his rather unconventional fashion choices, and the fact that she ends up saving his life one evening from what appear to be a band of murderous pirates. In reality, they are pirate hunters, and he himself is a (mostly) ex-pirate, trying to reform to London society for the sake of his young daughter. Alexandra knows she should resist him, for everything about Grayson is rather scandalous. However, that's the appeal. Soon Alexandra is embroiled in the deadly feud between Grayson and his former best friend, James Ardmore. Once they ruled the seas together as friends and pirate Captains, but now they play a dangerous game of cat and mouse, and Alexandra is right in the middle of it. While Grayson tries to protect Alexandra from being hurt by the games he and his cohorts are engaged in, she is trying to unravel the history he and Ardmore share, and perhaps find a way to keep Grayson alive.

In the meantime, all of this pirate business is getting in the way of the very important soiree Alexandra is planning!

I think the best way to describe this book is to imagine a Jane Austen story sprinkled with pirates who really are violent and dangerous, while also being incredibly sexy and redeemable. A generous sprinkle of humor adds just the right touch. Excellently drawn characters really make the story work. I bought this book on a whim, and then stayed up until three in the morning to finish it in one sitting. I am waiting anxiously for the second book (James Ardmore's story), and I sincerely hope the author writes more than the original trilogy. I, for one, would read them all!

Action packed adventure from page one!

This book starts on page one with action and never sits still. It is a real page turner (or slider? with Nook). It's like every woman's fantasy wrapped up in one book---funny, adventurous and full of romance!

Enjoyed it but thought it was over too soon!

Really Wanted to like it more.

Really wanted to like it more...wanted to settle in for a good pirate series. The back story was mentioned so many times and in remarkably similar phrases that it basically became a character of the story. Too many subplots. I lost track of the characters. And thought the "twist" in the end was only to save the primary villian from coming across as "too" bad since he was the star of the next novel. to be honest, my favorite character was the little girl!

Aye aye captain

I loved the pirate story. I found it a refreshing twist on the tyipcal histrical romance..

Wanted to try "Regency" romance genre

This was a nice, quick read on a cold rainy day.

I was drawn into the characters, and although I was aware where it was all going to end, I still enjoyed it.

this book is a gem! great characters, laugh out loud fun, and plenty of twists and turns! Grayson and Alexandra are highly entertaining and well matched, plus the supporting characters are good too. I just bought the other two books in the series and can't wait to see how Capt Ardmore meets his match!

I actually enjoyed this book quite a bit. I found myself laughing out loud several times and I didn't want to put it down because I wanted to see what happened next.

A must read!

I was pleasantly surprised by finding this great read. This book had me wrapped up until the very end. Hot, but with action!

Would recommend this book as it has proper manners matched against bare lust, but not too much. Starring a pirate that u wished would live next door to u; intrigue, sword fights, innocents,

Coniving, and a few moments that make you wonder if the story is going to turn out the way you hope it will. You'll just have to read it yourself to see if it does!
