Sea of Ruin

De: Pam Godwin

Narrado por: Roxy Isles

Bennett Sharp is on the run. Wanted for piracy, she fears neither God nor death nor man. Except Priest Farrell.

The unfaithful, stormy-eyed libertine hunts her with terrifying possessiveness. Nothing will stop him from coming for her. Not his unforgivable betrayal. Not when she’s captured by the ice-cold pirate hunter Lord Ashley Cutler.

She must escape Ashley’s prison and Priest’s deceit. But can she walk away from their twisted desires?

Two gorgeous captains stand on opposite sides of the law. When they collide in a battle to protect her, the lines blur between enemies and lovers.

Passion heats, secrets unravel, and hearts entangle until they break.

Can love prevail in the sea of ruin?

NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!

***Warning***
If you're sensitive to violence, rape, abuse, torture, manipulation, the deepest grief and longing.... as well as wicked sexual plays, do not enter!

This story has a badass pirate heroine who saw her own pirate father hang and her mother jumping out from a cliff because of her grief - just shortly after Bennett herself gutted a 40 year old man who tried to rape her. At that time she is just 14 years old.

That's how the story of Bennett Sharp, female pirate Captain in the Westindia Seas in the 1800s. Slavery and pirating is at the top of any seaman's career, and in all that, she meets her husband Priest whom has betrayed her and loves another.

Bennett runs from him,and 2 years later, runs into him again. But this time she is his captor, and she cannot forgive him.
That's when things get interesting, because Bennett parts ways with her crew to make a ruse for the English Navy ship and its captain, Ashley Cutler.

First enemies, then lovers. Trying to escape, but suddenly falling in love? What to do?
Before she has a plan she is taken on to another ship and being abused so horribly that I had trouble not living and breathing beside her.

From one captor to another, from one abuser to another - until it all ends in happy ever after - but in a different way that I was used to.

This story packs a punch. 15 hours of gruesome violence, heartbreaking and heartwrenching love, longing, rejection, the fulfillment of the ultimate love story. An unexpected twist, secrets revealed and a bounty hunt.
I honestly don't know what else you could want from a story about pirates, love and the seven seas.

Plus - the narrator is simply amazing. She is worth your credit!

OMG

Let me start by saying, if you have triggers, then this isn't the book for you. This book is full of abusive situations, rapes, belittling and humiliation....but it was a great read.

The ending MFM relationship that develops, I thought it was beautifully executed. I just wish we saw more of it.

So much action and sexy ness

Just know this does have a lot of triggers but worth it! It has a lot of action plenty of sex and a nice surprise at the end

What an epic adventure!!

I have to say this was an amazing story. The narrator was perfect as well. If you are ready to get lost in an adventure with love violence and pirates you will not be sorry.

Be aware this is not for the faint of heart. It is after all a story from a day gone by. Ms. Godwin will rip your heart out and collect the pieces so you can put it back together.

Woah

I went into this story blind but not disappointed. It is pretty graphic but I love the pirating and the overall story. I wasn’t sure I’d be into a pirate story but it definitely was an adventure. The narrator is amazing!!!!

Loved!

Definitely check the TW. Some really dark parts.
For some reason it took me forever to get to this book. It had always been on my TBR. So glad I finally got to it!

A little long

The book was a little longer than I think it needed to be. The narrator was epic! Story was just ok, not a lot of anything happening.

great entertainer

loved every chapter and exquisite detail that made me believe I was standing there amongst the hot savagery

Wonderful!

I can’t believe I waited so long to listen to this! It was amazing and so worth every minute of my time and money! It’s Pam Godwin at her best! I recommend it to anyone who likes pirates darker historical romance stories… with lots of spice!

Tense, romantic, erotic and a lot of violence

Prepare for violence and torture.
This is no spoiler, but just something I think you should be aware of before buying.
There were a couple of instances in the second half of the book that went too far for me.
I’m not sure this level of cruelty was necessary to tell this story.

With that out of the way, I also experienced this story as romantic, tense and erotic.
I really liked the main character and felt invested in her. I always prefer a first person narrative, so that is a big plus for me in this story.
Bennet is such an awesome bass-ass woman (though I do wish she had a bit more opportunity to show it)
The romance was excellently done, I felt it.
The sex scenes were also great. I have to mention the narration here. Sex scenes can be a bit cringey/ awkward sometimes, but here it was very sexy, well done!
You’ll not be pulled out of the story with fake sounding sighs of pleasure.
The narration as a whole was wonderful. Great pacing, character distinction and convening of emotions.

I would recommend this audio-book with the caveat that you have to be able to stomach torture, be open minded and able to enjoy dark romance.
