Wed by proxy to a baron old enough to be her grandfather, Lady Anne trudges up the gangway of a galleon that will deliver her into the arms of a tyrant. Crestfallen, she believes her disastrous life cannot get worse—until she awakes to the blasts of cannon fire.
Facing certain death, Anne trembles in her stateroom while swords clash and the chilling screams of battle rage on the deck above. When a rugged Highlander kicks in her door, she prays for a swift end.
But Laird Calum MacLeod has a reason for plundering the ship—and it’s not a stunning English lass. With no other choice, he takes Anne to his crumbling keep on the isle of Raasay and sends a letter of ransom to her husband. In time, Anne grows to understand MacLeod’s plight and finds it increasingly difficult to resist Calum’s unsettling charm—until the baron sends a reply agreeing to terms.
Ripped from passion that will be forever seared into their souls, will Anne and Calum risk everything for love?

REVIEW:
When I saw the cover of CAPTURED BY THE PIRATE LAIRD, I told myself this book will be perfect for me to read. Well, Amy Jarecki didn’t disappoint me with her first book in her Highland Force series. Since, I love Scottish romances, this pirate adventure had everything to please me, a sexy Chief clan and a young English lady! I loved her two main characters Calum and Anne. The story starts as Anne, who was married by proxy to an old man, is captured by Calum a Scottish Laird, turned pirate to provide for his clan’s welfare. He decides to hold her captive and demand a ransom for her, but did not plan to feel a strong attraction for her. The moment they meet, sparks flare; beautiful chemistry between Calum and Anne. Will the captor be able to resist to his captive? Will she escape this dangerous rake? Will the attraction be mutual? The story is very well written, some scenes are filled with lots of emotions and the intrigue well developed. I relay enjoyed this Scottish story and looking forward to Ms. Jarecki’s next book THE HIGHLAND HENCHMAN, to be released on April 1st.
