I enjoyed this book. I thought that JA redeemed our Captain Ardmore well. We saw glimpses of the potential in The Pirate Next Door and here it is realised.Diana (the heroine) annoyed me in places. She is a smart, intelligent and realistic woman but her fears are not. I know fears can be irrational but it felt like she was using these to test James. To see what he would do and if he would react the way she would have expected her husband to. Again I can kind of understand this but it still felt awkward in reading.I liked that the majority of the story took place on Haven. It gave the leads a chance to actually know each other without a lot of interference from others or society. It was a great way to develop and cement their relationship before testing it elsewhere.I also found it interesting that Diana was Alexandra's (first book) equal and opposite. They both drew men to an astounding level, but Diana drew their sexual interest and nothing more, whereas Alexandra became their paragon.Overall I thought this was a enjoyable read and I will look for the next in the series.
