However, the number of times these two people, who obviously like each other, had a kiss interrupted…this romance definitely takes it’s time! But you will have to read it yourself to see if the kiss happens! Arn defies the usual pirate tropes to offer a strange mix of desperation conflicting with his desire to be an honest man – at least for a pirate – worthy of Emme’s affection. He is such a softhearted soul who truly cares for those on his ship that it was difficult for me to imagine him as a cutthroat pirate, but I didn’t need him to fulfill the stereotype. You won’t be alone.’”Īrn, a charming pirate captain with his fair share of secrets, is hopelessly in love with Emme, but she is so desperate for a cure to her fatal illness that she doesn’t even notice for a good while. “‘I’ll go with you when it’s time to fulfill it. There is a bit of magic, some ghosts, and a cast of colorful characters. It’s an exciting adventure through perilous seas and on dangerous islands in search of not only treasure, but freedom and a future. I love me a spooky tale! I don’t read a lot of pirate adventure books, so this was a refreshing read that reminded me warmly of Treasure Island while still being very original in the characters and story. Oathbound is the first in a new series – The Royal Rose Chronicles – from Enclave Publishing, written by Victoria McCombs, which releases February 15, 2022.
