I won this book in a contest and I'm so glad I did. I absolutely loved it!!! I have always liked pirates, however, i never thought about a pirate that enters back into polite society. The author did an amazing job with making it a shorter story, most of the time short stories make me feel like something is missing but Eloisa James did an amazing job. Other authors should really pay attention to her work.

The characters were great as usual and I like how her books somewhat go together. Each book has characters in it that were in other books for a little while.

I had to give this book 5 stars I just couldn't find anything wrong with it. ( )

This is a good little story. It made me chuckle and kept my interest. ( )

This book was a lot better than the other two books I had read of hers. I am glad I gave her one more shot! There were a couple parts that made me laugh aloud which is always enjoyable! ( )

I loved the characters, but felt as though the short story/novella format rushed the love story way too much. The evolution of the love story between the hero/heroine felt a bit rushed and almost forced, so I had a hard time believing the two characters genuinely loved each other. Would love to have seen them in a full length novel. ( )

I read this book in about an hour. Maybe that was the point. If you like "quickies" this could be the perfect book for you. I'm more interested in a somehwat longer term investment for my time. ( )

This was a short book which followed The Ugly Duchess. I am not a big lover of regency romance novels. However I like Eloisa James, before you guys read this though read Ugly Duchess, its a good book and this one might make a little bit more sense if you read it after. ( )

even though this was a novella, which I hate reading, I quite enjoyed this. I'd rather it have been a full novel though... ( )

SEDUCED BY A PIRATE by Eloisa James is an interesting historical romance. A quick fun read. Filled with love,acceptance, finally coming home,forgiveness,and true love.

Fun companion story to the Ugly Duchess. Short but fun romantic novella with a pirate and the lady he left behind. Looking forward to more from this author. ( )
