Katherine Inskip's life is at a standstill: she is completely overworked, stressed-out and indifferent to love--not a great situation for a romance writer to find herself in. She desperately needs some R&R. A South Seas vacation--complete with sun and surf--sounds perfect. But relaxation is the last thing on the mind of the dashing owner of the island resort, and descendant of South Seas pirates.

5.0 out of 5 stars
My vacations are never this good!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Pirate (Mass Market Paperback)
I don't know what book the rest of you guys were reading, but I LOVED this book! Jared and Kathryn were just hilarious together. Kathryn wasn't too hard-edged--she was stressed out! That was the whole point of the vacation that starts the whole plot moving forward. Jared pushes all her buttons and their "arguments" are pure romantic comedy. Kathryn de-stresses really quickly--like by day 2!--and then it's just romance and and lots of excitement with just enough sexy banter to keep me grinning. Sure, it's not a "deep" read, but I can't think of a better way to spend a couple of hours.

IPromising opening, but this really doesn't deliver.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Pirate (Mass Market Paperback)
I enjoyed early scenes with the heroine, but the plot really didn't develop. There seemed to be no reason for these two characters to get together other than that they were in the same place at the same time. The hero had appeal, but it was hard to really cheer on the heroine. In the dark moment of crisis, I didn't really care if it all ended. The heroine's concern seemed a bit petty so she didn't deserve to get the love of her life. All this said, it's not a terrible story if you like romance...but I was able to people watch, accept room service, and call home to check on the kids. A pleasant diversion, but not riveting.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent,
By Tina "tinaellorascave" (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Pirate (Mass Market Paperback)
"The Pirate" (book one of three, followed by "The Adventurer" and "The Cowboy") is a great short story. It was hilarious and witty, Krentz at her best. The only thing some readers might find exasperating is that this is an older Krentz book, so the hero was a little too alpha male at times. There were a couple of scenes in the book where I mentally gritted my teeth at his behavior. Nevertheless, this entire trilogy is excellent, guaranteed entertainment. Buy them all and read them in order!
