I can’t lie, this was entertaining. I listened to it on audible and the narrator did a pretty good job, other than being cringey during the FMC’s

It wasn't too entertaining after the first part.
This wasn’t a bad story and the ending was set up well to lead to upcoming books however the book itself had many grammatical errors. There were also points in the book where I feel like the characters drastically changed their behavior or beliefs without any clear character development.
Overall, it was a cute read but not one I would recommend.

Huh!?
What the hell did I just read!? This book was all over the place! And it claims it’s a “dark romance”, and there was ZERO darkness. Violence, yes, but a dark romance? NO. I gave it two stars just because the writing was good and I think that there’s an idea here for a better story. However, this book was an absolute train wreck.

Married To A Pirate is a valiant attempt at a swashbuckling adventure, but ultimately falls flat on its face due to its blatant disregard for reality. The heroine is sheltered and innocent and then portrayed as a superhuman amalgamation of Houdini, Lara Croft, and a seasoned pirate, all rolled into one improbably capable package. Her ability to effortlessly vanish into thin air, dismantle solid oak doors with her bare hands, and outmaneuver hardened sea dogs with a mere knife is nothing short of astounding.
The plot races at a breakneck pace, but not in the exhilarating sense. Instead, it feels like a desperate attempt to distract the reader from the glaring inconsistencies and plot holes. The love story is as deep as a kiddie pool, with the female lead's feelings conveniently materializing just in time for a dramatic plot twist. And when the moment of anticipated passion finally arrives, readers are met with a frustratingly abrupt fade to black.
Perhaps the most disappointing aspect is the complete lack of character development. The male lead, a pirate captain, is a one-dimensional caricature of a brooding anti-hero, whose questionable leadership decisions are conveniently overlooked in favor of his rugged good looks.
Overall, Married to A Pirate is a prime example of style over substance. It's a book that promises adventure but delivers absurdity. If you're looking for a thrilling pirate tale with believable characters and a satisfying conclusion, this is not it.

unimpressive. poor writing, plot holes, pitifully fleshed out characters, and predictable
This had so much potential! Dark Pirates of the Caribbean with sex?? Sign me up! But then it just... flopped. The writing is fine, but in desperate need of another round of editing (seriously, indie authors, you have the power to do this). There was no smut at ALL, despite the long lead up to it, and the latter half of the book felt incredibly rushed. There were three huge plots in this book, and they were all crammed together to become one mediocre story.
Let's see if book #2 gets better...
