This was a fun read… we have a psychic who doubts herself and an immortal pirate who is the champion of Savannah, GA. It doesn’t get any better!

Skye is having a severe case of self-doubt after a relationship gone wrong. She is trying to swear off men, but there is something about Colton she can’t quite put her finger on. She likes that he gets to do what he loves and that is playing the role of a pirate. What she doesn’t know, he’s a real-life pirate! Who didn’t want to be a pirate growing up?! Colton, as quartermaster, has made it his mission to protect the city of Savannah against his former captain, Ian Flynn, who wants to build a hotel in the city. The only thing stopping Ian is Skye. She owns the last piece of property he needs to purchase in order to make his dream a reality. Can Colton get to Skye before Ian? What will happen when she finds out who they really are?

Colton, the handsome devil, has a heart of gold, and up until meeting Skye, he let every day just pass him by. Skye can’t seem to trust herself after her last relationship. Skye can't seem to trust herself after her last relationship. Her previous relationship left Skye wary of all men, but Colton was a breath of fresh air. This is a whirlwind romance that will keep you tuned into the story. My only complaint, it was too short! I needed and wanted more, however, it does make me want to read what happens next. What would be great while waiting for the next book, is finding a prequel! I can’t wait for either or both! (Preferably BOTH!)

Before Magnolia Mystic, I’d never read a book involving pirates. I don’t know why I hadn’t since I love movies and shows about them. Anyways, the point is I had an absolute blast reading this book! The concept of immortal pirates is so interesting and I loved getting to meet Colton and the rest of his crew and learning more about them. Speaking of Colton, I adored him and Skye together. I felt their connection instantly and even though things moved at a fast pace with them it never seemed rushed. It was just as it should’ve been. The only complaint I have is that the book didn’t go on longer, so I could get more of the story and more of Skye and Colton together!

I’m definitely in this series for the long haul. I can’t wait to pick up the next book to continue the journey we started in Magnolia Mystic. And to see which member of the Sea Dogs crew gets his happy ever after next!

This book has a main defect: it was too short. It's fun to read, an enjoyable mix of paranormal and romance.
The character are likeable and sexy and the plot get you hooked since the beginning.
Recommended!
