King of Libertines is a delicious, little taste of Bennett and Priest and how they meet. I was immediately pulled in, eagerly devouring every word, savoring every bit of their lust and passion. Imagine the sexiest, most virile, and possessive pirate ever, and you’ll get Priest Farrell. Bennett is a BA captain of her pirate ship. She kicks ass and demands respect, and gets it. Bennett and Priest together? Intoxicating. Powerful. Their sizzling chemistry made me tingle in all the right places. In this short yet hearty story, Ms. Godwin created a perfect pirate world, gave me characters who captured my heart, and made me crave more. An outstanding beginning to the Sea of Ruin.
