Wind Raven
Reviewed by Gail MacMillan
The year is 1815. The War of 1812 between British and Americans has only recently been ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent on Christmas Eve of 1814. British and Americans haven’t yet forgiven or forgotten the events of that conflict. Therefore, when feisty Tara McConnell, a native of Baltimore, after spending a year in London as a debutante, discovers she’s to be sent home on a ship captained by the handsome Englishman Nicholas Powell, she’s far from pleased with the arrangement. Captain Nick isn’t overjoyed, either. He sees her simply as a liability to the assignment he’s accepted from the Prince Regent.
Tara, from a sea faring family, manages to win his grudging respect with her knowledge of ships and her ability to lend a hand at almost every chore aboard but as she finds herself falling under the spell of the charismatic captain, she also discovers he’s a man whose heart has previously been broken and he’s not about to risk that happening again.
Wind Raven, Book Three in the Agents of the Crown Trilogy, is a classic historical romance. It features the perfect characters to play major roles in such a story…a dashing, enigmatic hero and a beautiful, fascinating heroine. Secondary characters are so expertly described that they could readily be recognized if they chose to walk off the pages into reality. Battles on the high seas, romance in the sultry tropics, and mystery and danger at every turn keep the plot well paced and enthralling. The author never allows the reader a dull moment in which to lose interest. Ms. Walker’s descriptions of ships, locations, and nautical action are precise, her research obviously extensive and precise. When the characters arrive in Puerto Rico, the story exudes sunshine, flowers, and the lush sensuousness of the tropical location.
On another level, with Tara representing the Americans and Nicholas the British, it’s a story of two countries overcoming the animosities of the past and uniting to form strong and lasting ties that one hundred years later would find them united against Germany in the greatest struggle the world had yet seen.
Wind Raven will capture the reader’s attention with the tavern scene on page one and won’t release it until the final scene draws the tale to a successful conclusion. I highly recommend it.
This is the first book of the series I've read and I didn't feel lost. It is a very good Pirate novel and made me get the feel of the danger. All the pit falls that could happen when you are on a schooner in the middle of vast water with pirates always near by.
I really liked the h a lot. She had a very kind heart and was brave. I enjoyed the banter with the H and the crew. At times it was somewhat slow, but other than that I loved it.
We are treated to a romance that builds slowly, when they do make love it felt right with just the right amount of description. Not erotic at all, nor did it go on page after page.
I loved the ending with a very satisfying HEA. No cliffhanger, lots of action, suspense, some sadness that pulls you into the story.
I am not going into the premise of the story, as many have explained it. Just what you will discover reading it. (ljb)
