Summary

After being pressed into the service of the Royal Navy, piracy afforded Captain Andrew Reeves the path to a new life. But he’ll find no peace until he’s exacted vengeance upon those who betrayed him - including his former lover Arabella Baines.

Bella once promised her unfailing love yet is soon to marry another. Taking her captive, Drew vows to do with her as he pleases, subjecting her to every dark desire conjured by his rage and bitterness. At his mercy, Bella submits to Drew, having no wish to escape the man to whom her heart truly belongs.

As Drew unearths the truth behind her duplicity, can the wounds of the past be healed, allowing a second chance at love?

Pirate's Paradise is an angsty, swashbuckling series of romances featuring dauntless outlaws of the high seas. These books contain eyebrow-scorching adult scenes, but romance is at the heart of these erotic tales. Set sail to exotic Jamaica and the wilds of Madagascar, and prepare to be plundered!

Erotic Pirate Romance

Vixtoria Vale has done it again with a great steamy story of adventure which I really enjoyed. The only part I wasn't sure about was although I appreciate the hurt and anger that Andrew must have suffered I didn't see why he had to be so brutal with Arabella on their first encounter, nor how she found this so acceptable.

Darcy again has done a superb narration of the story!

Well written and interesting

A spicy swashbuckling love story that will keep you enthralled for many pleasant hours - especially with Darcy Stark as the narrator. What a voice actor! Amazing

Not for the faint hearted!

I have originally read the shorter version of the story in a collection and instantly fell in love with the characters, Bella and Drew. The story is well written (I expect nothing less from Ms Vale!), the description of scenes and characters are beautiful, and the hotness level is... unbearable if sexy scenes with a little bit of BDSM are not your cup of tea. ;) So, if you want to listen to something saucy, go ahead, you won't regret it! (Oh those naughty pirates and their filthy mouths...)

Boring

This is just boring and predictable. There's no true revenge story to match the blurb. It's just a misunderstanding that gets cleared early on and after that it's just healing and relationship building. Gaah.
