Review: The Captain's Curse by Lisa Kessler

 


Captain Ian Flynn would die for any one of his crew…if he could. Now he might have to. Because one of the only known weapons able to kill an immortal is missing. The Spear of Destiny—a priceless religious artifact from the crucifixion—is in the hands of his ship’s ruthless ex-captain. Now the lives of the Sea Dog’s immortal pirate crew are all at risk…along with the headstrong mortal Ian never should have fallen for.

Writer Lily Bouchard isn’t sure what’s worse. That she fell for Ian Flynn only to get her heart broken, or that she romanticized the man like he was some gorgeous viking straight out of a movie. So when he shows up suddenly with some absurd tale of immortal pirates and mythical religious relics, Lily doesn’t know what to think. He’s always had a wildness beneath his well-tailored appearance…but how could any of this possibly be real?

Now a centuries-old vendetta between two pirate captains has erupted, and Ian will do anything to keep Lily safe—even if it means risking everything. But she won’t give him up without a fight.

The only thing more dangerous than killing an immortal is falling for one…




My rating: 5 of 5 stars πŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸŒŸ

We finally get Captain Ian Flynn's story but it also marks the end of this series. It's sad but I'm happy we got to know Captain Ian on a deeper level. Lily was a great addition to the crew as well. Thank you so much to the author this series overall was full of adventure and spice.

Captain Ian Fynn hasn't worried much about his life as an immortal until now. Someone has stolen the Spear of Destiny from Department 13 and if it falls into the wrong hands, every one of the Sea Dog's crew is in danger.

Writer Lily Bouchard is trying to mend her broken heart. Ian walked away without any explanation and now here he is with a wild tale about immortal pirates and religious artifacts. She can't wrap her mind around all this at first but he also warns her that someone from his past is looking to settle an old score. So she is also in danger.

He'll do anything to keep her safe but Lily doesn't want any more secrets between them and she wants an equal partnership going forward. She's falling in love with the immortal pirate all over again and Ian wants to spend the rest of his life with her.

Thank you so much to the author, Entangled, and NetGalley for this ARC to review.
