The Pirate and the Pagan 
There is just something about these old Virginia Henley romances that I love. You feel like you have read a whole series by the time you have finished one book. They just don't write books last this anymore... and that makes me sad.Like most heroines in these type of books, our leading lady in this story is a survivor. Lady Summer St. Catherine (Cat) is forced into a life of theft and smuggling to put food on the table for her and her younger brother, Viscount Spencer St. Catherine (Spider).
The first book I read by Virginia Henley and then I had to read the rest of the series. Enjoy!

An adventurous story. The love between Ruark and Summer could be so simple and beautiful, if not for her smuggling brother. They quarrel and Summer flees into the arms of Rory, Ruark's brother. This one is a pirate and also the same person as Ruark. The reader recognizes this immediately. Why Summer does not see it is the biggest downer in the story. Only a white strand of hair and a beard distinguish the "two", but she does not get it. She gets captured and is freed by Rory/Ruark. Only then
Best love story ever! Love the characters and the drama. Made me laugh and cry. I would read this book over and over again. Highly recommend this book to avid Romance readers.
Started reading this book and I can't seem to go any further. What a load of crap I don't know what the hell i'm reading one minute they see each other the next their married and in love how just how I'm trying really hard to understand this book! How can persons rate this 5 star ???
First read this book when I was 16 and have read it multiple times since. Sure, its a little cheesy but all good bodice rippers are!

Chronicle To Books The Pirate and the Pagan
Wild as a pagan goddess, Lady Summer galloped her stallion along the Cornish coast. She had dabbled in the smuggler's game to save her family estate, but a wealthy marriage would better serve her purpose now. Lord Ruark Helford seemed the answer to her reckless prayers. But as his hot, hungry kisses drew her toward deception and irresistible acts of love, she had to hesitate. Would this arrogant, handsome lord be her ticket to heaven--or hell?Point Books In Pursuance Of The Pirate and the Pagan
