Synopsis

He could be her ruin.

Hugh Redvers is supposed to be dead. So the appearance of the sun-bronzed giant with the piratical black eye patch is deeply disturbing to Lady Daphne Davenport. And her instant attraction to the notorious privateer is not only wildly inappropriate for a proper widow but potentially disastrous. Because he is also the man Daphne has secretly cheated of title, lands, and fortune.

She could be his salvation.

Daphne Redvers's distant, untouchable beauty and eminently touchable body are hard enough to resist. But the prim, almost severe, way she looks at him suggests this might be the one woman who can make him forget all the others. His only challenge? Unearthing the enemy who threatens her life . . . and uncovering the secrets in her cool blue eyes.

Contains mature themes.

Hugh Redvers has returned home. He wants nothing to do with the title that is rightfully his. Hugh is only there to protect his late uncle's widow, Lady Daphne. It seems someone has been making threats and if Hugh knows one thing, it is how to get vengeance. Daphne feels guilty that her sons will in......more

Goodreads review by Niki (mustreadalltheromance) on January 04, 2020

This is one of the most well-written books I've read in quite some time and I loved the unique analogies I found in it. When you read as much as I do, it can sometimes get a bit repetitive, but this one was very original. The hero of this story is Hugh, a baron-turned-pirate who has returned from th......more

Goodreads review by Heather on August 25, 2018

Hugh tries to do the right thing, “Daphne, look at me, sweetheart.” She looked up at the warmth in his voice and the endearment. He smiled, and there was both amusement and pain in the expression. “I apologize for sending you away, but I’m afraid I can’t exercise any restraint if you remain within r......more

Goodreads review by Heather K (dentist in my spare time) on September 26, 2018

*3.5 stars* I'm loving Minerva Spencer and her Outcasts series, but Barbarous was not quite as good as Dangerous for me. Barbarous started off VERY strong, and I was sure I was going to love it. As the book went on, my enjoyment waned, but it still remained a very enjoyable book overall. Barbarous ha......more
