Pirate's Price is a fun tale of piracy on the high seas with the most unlikely of crews. Ms Marshall employs a sense of humor to move the story forward using characters you don't ordinarily run into in these numbers. In one scene, she uses an old joke, but pulls it off nicely as narrative. The characters are amusing and believable, and hold your attention to the end of the story.

Justin Delerue, Lord Smithton, has his hands full, in more ways than one, as he tries to steal something from his wayward bride. It's a battle of wits, and the results could be very close. Is he willing to pay the Pirate's Price? This historical romance is a quick read, but one well deserving the time.
