Customer Reviews

Intriging, enchanting, thrilling and extremely exciting!!!!

[]I love the Bucaneer Series !!! These books were absolutely brilliant. Linda C writes with such vivid detail and her historical content has the effect of making you want to travel back in time to meet emerald and especially Baret! I couldn't get enough of this series and as a result read it 7 times !!! Reading it makes you want to jump into the story and help Emerald and Baret to realise their love for each other even through all their trials. Near the end of book two the story is so intense that it makes you want to scream.(...) You'll haves to read it for yourself - it is definately a major must read !!!!!!

A Masterpiece (-In progress?)

As I began to read this anxiously awaited book, I was instantly captivated - as is the norm with Linda's books. It had it all, adventure, intrigue, romance, and most importantly - a subtle but clear Christian message. How thrilled was I to finally see Baret's Love for Emerald unleashed, to know without doubt that he would let no cicumstance or person come before their love. The intrigue surrounding his father's "death" was skillfully unraveled to a worthy end, and Baret's dreams fulfilled. Confrontations and battles were vibrantly brought to colour by the fluency which is a characteristic of Linda Chaikin. Thus one would think that this fast moving, intriguing book should completely satisfy me, and whilst I immensely enjoyed the book and have given it a top rating, I find my self somewhat dissatiafied with the 'details' that could have further been explored - but seem to have been forgotten in tha haste in which the author seemed to have written the book (probably due to those like myself who pushed for a quick release date!!) I personally would like to know, among others, if Emerald ever saw the impression that Baret had sketched of her?, did Minette and Eric find happiness and harmony together? , what about Lavander and Grayford - were they able to make a go of it together? - and was there a chance of happiness for Geneva and Baret's father after the sudden demise of Felix? , did Jette go with Emerald and Baret to England and what was their reception from the king? These little things, I feel, would have gave a more completed feel to the novel and the series. But one thing I must remember whilst judging this book is that I do not have bestselling books credited to me and Linda certanly knows best when dealing with those whom she created - perhaps the 'unfinished' ending was to allow each reader to settle matters in their own style - although I would have much preferred it had she finished it in hers! Whilst saying this I must say that it is still a cut above most literature out in both Christian and secular circles at the moment, and on the whole a series to be read numerous times with endless enjoyment - Well Done Linda, it's another cracker!

Honour, betrayal, courage. What more can you ask for!

This is very well-written book! Great characters and great plot. This definitely deserves 5 stars!! Mrs. Linda did a really great job on this book. I love her Buccaneers Series, Day to Remember series and the Trade Winds series also. I recommend this book to mature readers only. You really have to read the whole series to understand what is happening and why it's happening. The romance was great also and I hope that my future husband is like Baret. Emerald is the woman that I would like to be even though she's been through alot of things. All in all, I hope that Mrs. Chaikin will keep on writing because I really enjoy her work! God bless, Mrs. Linda!

Romance, Danger on The High Seas, Pirates-That Says It All!

Like all of Linda Chaikin's books, this one was great! I could hardly put it down, I would highly recommend that everyone read it! One of the things that amazes me the most about Linda, is how she spreads one story out into three books, most other authors that do that write a horrible book; and this book is just as good as the first two! My favorite part in the whole book is when Baret gives Emerld a neckless of rubies and quotes from the Bible Proverbs 31:10 "A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more then rubies." Whew, talk about your dream husband!

A thrilling story about love and pirates!!!!!

Baret and Emerald are wonderful characters. You have to read this! It will not let you put the book down!
