Blurb:
In the aftermath of a
hurricane, Lacey Delahaye finds herself marooned on the Gulf coast of Florida
with a mysterious man. They are immediately drawn to each other, but before
Armand can confess his identity, they are kidnapped and taken far from civilization
to a tiny, remarkable island in the western Caribbean.
With the help of her son
Crispin, a small, but proud young boy named Inigo, and a cadre of extraordinary
characters, Lacey and Armand must confront pirates, power-mad ideologues, and
palace intrigue if they are to restore the once idyllic tropical paradise to
its former serenity and find lasting happiness.
Review
by Rochelle Weber:
I really like M. S.
Spencer, but I was beginning to be afraid her books were getting to be a bit
formulaic. The last few all seemed to begin with a murder on the heroine’s
first day at work. They grabbed me and kept me burning through the pages, and
each cast of characters was different, but I confess I was starting to worry.
Whirlwind
Romance is very
different. Each chapter begins with either a jelly recipe or a pirate-themed sea
chanty. Lacey Delahaye’s jellies are well-known and Armand, the man who fetches
up in the roots of the mangrove tree outside her home on Florida’s West Coast
is far from dead, as he demonstrates while she’s trying to rescue him from
drowning. He is, however, on the run—from pirates. No, it’s not an historical
story; it’s contemporary. And when said pirates find Armand hiding in Lacey’s
house, they kidnap her along with him.
Thus begins an adventure
Lacey never imagined getting caught up in. Her greatest ambition was to open a
jelly store, not get caught up in piracy or the governmental affairs of a Caribbean
island. Oh, and let’s not forget romance. Lacey is definitely caught in a
whirlwind, and you will be, too—one you can’t put down. Clear the decks before
you pick up this book. I recommend Earl Grey, hot, with crumpets, butter, and red
currant jelly whilst you read it.

You’ll notice we always
include the publisher’s buy link. That’s because authors usually receive 40% of
the book price from the publisher. Editors and cover artists usually receive
about 5%. When you buy a book from Amazon, Barnes & Noble or another
third-party vendor, they take a hefty cut and the author, editors and cover
artists receive their cuts from what is left. So, if a book costs $5.99 at
E-Book Publisher.com and you buy from there, the author will receive about
$2.40. If you buy the book at Amazon, the author will receive about $0.83.
