Jane Feather, a New York Times best-selling author, receives many awards and international acclaim for her historical romances. There are now over four million copies of her books in print. The Least Likely Bride, filled with colorful heroes and villains, is set against the tumultuous backdrop of England in 1648. Lady Olivia Granville is a lovely, headstrong scholar. Anthony Caxton is a pirate. However he, too, is keenly intelligent and independent. When they meet on the high seas, their sparks of passion are as powerful as the wind. But those sparks soon become part of a larger flame--one that burns in the service of the King. The characters of The Least Likely Bride are thoroughly entertaining, and political intrigue adds additional drama to the tempestuous affair between lady and pirate. The sparking wit and subtle humor are highlighted through Jenny Sterlin's charming narration.

"I absolutely loved this book. I found myself holding my breath at times and routing on the bad/good guys at other times. I thought I had the end figured out but found that the book ending wasn't as predictable as I thought. I am looking forward to reading the author's other books. "

— Sallie, 6/26/2013" Now that I have my second reserved-for-reviews thoughts it does remind me of the De Warenne series The Conqueror but only in a matter of historical similarities; not many books in that period of time. A good one, this. Made me curious about Portia's story and a little less, about Phoebe's. "
