Lady Catherine Adley, joven y exquisitamente hermosa, había sido educada por las gobernantas más formales de Inglaterra y había asistido a las mejores escuelas, pero Jonathan Hale hacía que se sintiera como una vulgar zorra. El lujurioso pirata había atracado el barco que llevaba a Catherine desde Portugal rumbo a Inglaterra: le había perdonado la vida a cambio de una noche de salvaje y desatada pasión. Arrastrada a Las Palmas, una apartada isla habitada por piratas, ella sólo anhelaba la oportunidad de matar a Jonathan. Pero el deseo de él no tenía límites y muy pronto la carne de Catherine clamaba por su experto contacto. Cuando los ingleses la rescataron y tomaron prisionero a Hale, la joven se encontró implorando por la vida del hombre al que había prometido matar. Classic Bodice Ripper style (literally happens to her at least 3 times lol) If you enjoy the type then you will love this one. A really good read. Cathy is on her way to join English Society when the ship is beset by pirates and she is taken hostage by Captain Jon Hale. "Forced seduction" takes place fairly early in the story and many journeys await them. Lots of misunderstandings and distrust ahead. Battles, near deaths, pirate islands, and more. Jam packed full of "omg" moments. I will definitely be reading the next one! Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
A classic love story from New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards. Lady Catherine Aldley was en route to London when pirates attacked her ship. Just in time, Captain Jonathan Hale rescued her from his own men, sweeping her into his arms, staking his claim on the pampered daughter of England's ambassador to Portugal. All Catherine had were her wits and the will to beat her captor at his own game. His searing kisses kindled unfamiliar passions, but she vowed to make him her prisoner of desire... He was a legendary pirate, daring, triumphant, free. Jonathan Hale never took captives and always escaped--until he saw the headstrong beauty he couldn't leave behind. She was fire and ice, a lady outraged, a tigress in his arms. Cathy refused to be treated like chattel, yet yielded to his sensual invasion as she conquered his body and soul. She made loving truly dangerous, exposing his deepest fears--and his mutinous heart... Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

He rapes her, then spends the rest of the book correcting her by saying she desperately wanted it, he could tell. Uses sex and sexual violence as punishment. Routinely verbally and emotionally abuses her, physically abuses her, humiliates her and by the end has stopped apologizing.
Meanwhile Cathy starts the book complaining that she can't flirt with all the sailors, comments how fluttering her eyes gets her anything ahe wants, purposely sets out to provoke men she considers unsafe to be around, uses what little freedom she has to run to the WORST BAR EVER, when the chance to get home safe she RUNS THE OPPOSITE WAY (literally) and at some point in the middle decides to stop communicating completely regressing instead to tantrums.
There is literally NO redeeming values to anyone. Neither matures, Neither sees how fucked up they are.
And to touch on the other characters (spoilers ahoy) -
