"A 17-year-old pirate captain intentionally allows herself to get captured by enemy pirates in this thrilling YA adventure.
Sent on a mission to retrieve an ancient hidden map—the key to a legendary treasure trove—seventeen-year-old pirate captain Alosa deliberately allows herself to be captured by her enemies, giving her the perfect opportunity to search their ship.
More than a match for the ruthless pirate crew, Alosa has only one thing standing between her and the map: her captor, the unexpectedly clever and unfairly attractive first mate, Riden. But not to worry, for Alosa has a few tricks up her sleeve, and no lone pirate can stop the Daughter of the Pirate King." - From Goodreads
Will you like it?
I wasn't entirely sure how to feel about this book. There was a lot of telling vs. showing about the background of Alosa, and I'm not entirely sure it's my favorite way of finding out the backstory.
The action was awesome! The last 1/3 of the book made up for the dancing Riden and Alosa do. I loved how smart and strong Alosa was to get out of all of her scrapes. She never let anything get in the way of what she wanted.
Overall, this book would be perfect for someone who likes a lot of action mixed with their romance.
Disclosure: I received an electronic galley of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
