Review: Romance on the Open Ocean
Rating: 4 out of 5

The chemistry between the main characters Lorena St. John and Captain Warren Rawlins was magnetic from the start.  Her childhood and early youth were spent under the iron fist of a stepfather whom she's always thought only tolerated her and her sisters.  Following the death of her beloved mother, this stepfather packs her off to Bermuda and the prospect of a husband.  Lorena is totally unprepared for what she finds at the hands of a tyrannical fiance.  Luckily, she's "rescued" from having to marry the monster and thus the adventure begins.  This is a wonderful book with a well written storyline (although my Kindle edition seemed to suffer from missing words or phrases that made the dialog hard to follow on occasion).  This book may be better read in printed form.  I love romance on the high seas and in the case of this book in the harbortown of Boston, Massachusetts.  Another truly great book from Mary Wine.P.S.  Lorena, like many children, finally learns that her (step) father wasn't as bad a man as she'd always thought...Imagine that!
