    Dear Listener, Island Flame is a classic tale of romance on the high seas, featuring two extraordinary characters: the headstrong Lady Catherine Aldley and the legendary pirate Jonathan Hale. No book is more special to me. I was thrilled when it was published, and now, more than thirty years later, I am just as excited to share it again with you. I don’t have to tell you that their tumultuous escapade sizzles with passion (lots of passion!), but what I hope you will take away most from Cathy and Jonathan is that dreams do come true - in love and in life. Mine did, and I hope yours will too.

    This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

    Someone misogynistic or masochistic.


    Would you ever listen to anything by Karen Robards again?

    Not sure.


    Which character – as performed by Justine Eyre – was your favorite?

    She performed all the character's fine, the story line was so repulsive I cannot imaging how she managed it.


    What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

    Disgust and disappointment that a women would write about falling in love with your rapist / kidnapper and because he says, I'm sorry she loves him. He promises it will never happen again but of course, it does and she forgives him and they live happily ever after.


    Any additional comments?

    Rape, Abuse, Stockholm Syndrome and Romance don't go together for me!
