Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You won't catch him spending the night. The Dread Pirate Stone takes no survivors. He's ruthless. Fearless. He's unstoppable, especially now that he's so close to finding the Cat's Eye - an emerald so big it will buy him a thousand ships. Or, in his case, pay off his debt to the man who's been holding his sister hostage. Stone will do anything to get that damn rock. He'll fight. He'll pillage. He'll even kill if he has to. Nothing can stand in his way, but then he meets someone who changes everything. Eleanor knows she's nobody to write home about. She's plain. Homely. A little boring. There's nothing very special about her. She was training to be a teacher before she witnessed the murder of the town mayor. Now she's on the run and the only person who can keep her safe is one the entire world has labeled a villain. Oh yes, she's heard all about the Dread Pirate Stone, but the stories have missed a couple of important details. The legends don't talk about how stunning his deep green eyes are. They don't talk about his long, wavy locks. The stories all missed the part about his steely abs or the fact that just one look from him is enough to make her knees quiver. Nobody warned her about that. Nobody would warn her that she might start to care about the man who could throw her out to sea - but doesn't. Soon their worlds are colliding in ways Eleanor never thought possible... And she doesn't know if she's going to make it out alive.

Download or read book To Persuade a Privateer written by Heather C. Myers and published by Heather C Myers. This book was released on 2021-03-12 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She wanted a stable life, a good marriage, and a family. He stole her away to the sea. Elinor is a woman of means, who is looking forward to her arranged marriage. As the eldest of three sisters, she wants to show her siblings that love, while ideal, doesn't need to be the main component to a successful marriage. Duty to the family is more important than duty to one's self. Her best friend, Samantha, doesn't quite agree, but Sam has always been ideal and never particularly cared about making a smart match for herself. Jaime Butler is a Scottish privateer, sailing the Seven Seas for treasure and freedom. When he gets word that his long lost sister is in the Caribbean, he rushes to obtain her and bring her back to his home in Scotland. He doesn't think he would need to take her friend as well, an obnoxious English woman who wants everything done perfectly. At least he might be able to get a good ransom out of her - not that he needs it. He's wealthy in his own right and only takes on the role of privateer because he wants the excuse to sail the seven seas, taking what he wants for the English king (the bastard). When forces collide, bringing these two opposites together, both will learn that love is more than they originally thought it would be.

His family features of course, through the good times and bad. This book is also somewhat of a history lesson of what life was like in the Crays during the 40's, 50's and 60's.Young Steak and Kidney (Sidney) went from skint to having so much money he didn't know what to do with it, but he learnt very quickly. His nickname around the Crays was "Champagne Sid", when he drank, everybody drank, life was one long party.Ultimately he got his collar felt, more than once, but his tales of escape and evasion will bring a smile to your face.It is written in the style of Sid himself, plenty of Cockney Slang and plenty of local dialect spoken by the travelling community. You will have to look past the odd grammatical error as well, but when a story is this good, it's more than worth it.
