Book Description
“This delightful book” for young readers “is full of creative activities, interspersed with plenty of fascinating historical facts” (School Library Journal). On this here ship, we follow the pirate's code: No frolikin' in the bilges, no songs about scurvy, and most important, each buccaneer must keep his pistol ready for action at all times. Break the code, me bucko, and you'll be forced to walk the plank. In The Big Book of Pirate Stuff, Captain Michael MacLeod and Jamaica Rose teach the fine art of pirateering, from plundering, pillaging, and gambling to digging for buried treasure. A dabble of history, a smatterin' of activities, and a healthy dose of derring-do make this book a must-read for aspiring pirates.

So when the man she loves disappears after a scandalous duel, she decides to follow him to the ends of the Earth. To do so, however, Chloe must evade her brother, an infamous revenue man, and board a ship bound for Penzance. And nothing in her beloved books can prepare her for the harsh realities of wreckers who ply the coast. After his father destroyed the lives of countless innocent people, Basil Halford, Earl of Markwick is willing to do anything to earn back his honor. Betrayed by his blood and his reputation ruined, Markwick answers the request of a well-heeled duke and dons the Black Regent’s mask to repay the debt. His task? Rescuing a young woman who is chasing down a ghost of a man. But a pirate has plenty of enemies, and Markwick isn’t any different. No matter how diligent a captain he may be, sailing to Lady Chloe’s rescue involves risking not only the Regent’s legacy but the last thing he can afford to lose…his heart.

Power and money allow even the most wretched of men to rule. Life in the colony of Rhode Island is no easier than life was in Ireland, and having an ocean between her and the dreadful man she was betrothed to marry brings little peace to Hannah O’Rourke. Even so she’d risk the dangerous journey again to remain free. After her closest friend dies giving birth to a sea captain’s bastard, Hannah finds herself in the newly cherished position of surrogate mother, and vows to do everything in her power to provide a good life for the baby. When she learns the baby’s father is not only happy to take the child, but he’s the same vile pirate she was to marry, Hannah is unable to control her fiery temper. She publicly accuses the man of deliberately ruining the baby’s mother and demands he be made to atone. Paying off the authorities and making it clear he has every intention of raising the baby at sea, Captain Black whisks the child from Hannah’s arms without allowing her to say a proper goodbye. As the pirate carries the little boy away to a roaming life of carousing, violence, and womanizing Hannah’s freedom is no longer important. Heartbreak and anger mixed with rum turn into an abduction plan that lands Hannah in the pirate’s brig on his ship bound for Ireland where she’ll be forced to marry the man she worked so hard to escape.
