Jen's Review: "The Privateer" by Dawn MacTavish

Lady Lark is put into debtors prison after her father dies, leaving her penniless and unable to pay off his debts. Her stay is short lived when the earl of Grayshire, known to his friends and family as King, pays her bonds and takes her into his household as his mother's new companion. But is that really the position he has in mind for her?

The Privateer was a good book. I liked the non-traditional way Lark and King meet. The characters were likable and the plot was solid. The book has a few slow moments and there was a secondary plot with a fired servant and a fellow inmate that I felt was just wasted space. But overall, I enjoyed the story and would read more books by this author.
