Product Description
Passion's Prisoner

Princess Tatiana needs a groom to help her rule her vulnerable country. So she embarks on a desperate mission -- traveling in disguise to a neighboring land to forge an alliance with the dashing Cairn MacTavish, the fabled “Pirate Lord.” But instead of a marriage, a rude welcome awaits the brave, beautiful royal when she is accused of being a common thief -- and is taken captive by the rogue she had meant to wed!

Not since his adventurous days on the high seas has MacTavish felt the sort of excitement this gorgeous hellion inspires. He knows she is hiding something -- and each claim of innocence that comes from her lush, inviting lips only inflames his desire for a kiss…and for the passionate night that will inevitably follow. Yet a past betrayal is still fresh in MacTavish's memory, and he dares not trust his heart. Now he vows to learn this mystery woman's secrets…even if he has to seduce her to do it.

About the Author

After trying her hand at practically everything from horse-training to high fashion modeling, Lois Greiman finds she most enjoys living vicariously through the lives of her fictional characters. Although she prefers her own world to remain relatively tranquil, she encourages her heroes and heroines to take outrageous risks, vent their tempers and generally take life by storm.

Born a North Dakota farm girl, Lois now lives in Dayton, Minnesota with her veterinarian husband, their three children, and as many horses as can fit on a twenty-acre farm.

4.0 out of 5 stars Vomit, Virgins and Villains!, July 8, 2003

By	Tara A. Green (Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews

Vomit, Virgins and Villains! Does it get any better?
Mistaken for a thief known as the "magical Megs", Princess Tatiana is held prisoner by the Pirate Lord Cairn McTavish. He's convinced she is this infamous thief and also lover to his rival and is intent on breaking her to his will and using her as a pawn to seek his revenge. Though we know Tatiana is a Princess and Cairn was once a pirate, we just aren't sure where Tatiana is from or when Cairn was ever a pirate. It's ok though because this story is so FUN! From the first chapter I was game for the wonderful ride Lois Greiman takes us on in THE PRINCESS AND THE PIRATE. This light book was a wonderful read that teases the reader by knocking out our hero just before they consummate their relationship. It was both amusing and entertaining. This book is a gem if you are looking for fun and silliness. You will find no heavy historical content however, so don't choose this story if that is what you are looking for. This one is PURE enjoyment from start to finish and a good break from more heavy storylines you may be reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Book That Never Leaves Your Side!, February 14, 2004

By	Michelle Handlin (Morris, MN) - See all my reviews

The book's twists and turns will force you to be so infatuated in the story that you will be bringing the book everywhere with you. Lois Greiman creates a setting that pulls you in and makes you beg for more! You will find yourself drawn to read her book no matter where you are and who you're with. Reading suddenly becomes more important than visiting with family members that you haven't seen in years, finishing important tasks, or even sleeping. Turning each page of Lois Greiman's PRINCESS AND HER PIRATE, is like watching a suspenseful movie. You ache for the characters to listen to your silent thoughts. As soon as you think you know what is going to happen next, a whirlwind of passion, romance, deception, and distrust overburdens your emotions and sucks you into each turning page. I invite you to read Lois Greiman's PRINCESS AND HER PIRATE if you want a captivating, sweet Scottish story about a couple trying to find love and the struggles they go through.

4.0 out of 5 stars an entertaining easy read...., August 12, 2003

By	sz4 "sz4" (Northern Illinois) - See all my reviews

I enjoyed this book. The dialog/verbal sparring between the two characters was great. The princess held her own in a variety of interesting circumstances. The story wrapped up a bit too neatly but left several items unsolved. Her character was strong, his a bit soft. The bodyguard Burr was most enjoyable. I've not read too many "pirate" novels but i enjoyed this.
