| Charlotte saved every penny for years and years to take a cruise to exotic ports of call. She pictured starry nights and sophisticated banter with handsome men. What she didn't picture was being robbed and shoved overboard by a cad. She also didn't imagine that she would meet a daring pirate and her cruise would become a treasure hunt filled with swashbuckling adventure and romance.
Uncharted Territory is a story of high seas adventure. It is also, and primarily, a romance between an office girl and a pirate with a heart of gold. Ms. Cory has presented this story in such a way as to make the time period vague, but that somehow works really well. After all, don't most of us picture being swept up by a handsome pirate and carried off to his sailing ship flying the Jolly Roger? And modern pirates are not romantic at all! So, here we have a modern miss and a good old fashioned pirate, high black boots, sharp sword, and all. I recommend this book to anyone who loves pirates and the sea, and who dreams of one day having an adventure to take her out of ordinary life and off to a romantic future.
