You won’t catch him spending the night.<\/b>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 finds a stowaway on his ship.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.<\/p>\n

Review by Twinsie Angie<\/p>\n

I purchased this book.<\/p>\n

I have to admit I love a good Sophie book.\u00a0 I love the worlds and the characters.\u00a0 When I grabbed this book, it was to read on vacation.\u00a0 I needed a shorter read for the drive.\u00a0 It was the perfect book!<\/p>\n

The book starts right away with major drama.\u00a0 The dream pirate Smith is attaching her family boat.\u00a0 Eleanor escaped with the cook.\u00a0 He saved her and took her home to raise as his own with his wife.\u00a0 They loved Eleanor with all they had.\u00a0 When things go bad, Eleanor is on the run.\u00a0 She joins a pirate ship to escape and hide.<\/p>\n

Pirate Stone is taken by the beautiful and PURE woman.\u00a0 He can\u2019t say no to her and makes a very nice bargain for himself.\u00a0 Eleanor agrees as she has zero other opportunities.\u00a0 The first night with the two was a nice and delicious treat for more night ahead.<\/p>\n

Stone is looking for his sister who was kidnapped by Pirate Smith.\u00a0 When he finds a witch to help him, parts of Eleanor\u2019s past sneak up on her and I was like WHOOOOO!\u00a0 The twist of the book had my mouth wide open because you think you have part of it figured out and then NOPE you don\u2019t!!<\/p>\n

The story was a great read, and I would totally read more from them or even the crew members.<\/p>\n
