Overview Ratings & Reviews

Captain Eric Hamilton is a powerful force in the U.S. Navy, having earned himself a reputation of being a hard-nosed chauvinist. He’s commander of the USS Larsen, a destroyer, currently deployed in the Persian Gulf during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Abby Carlton has just escaped from the man who held her captive for a year. Abducted while travelling in Paris, she was given to an Arab man as a gift, until one night she makes her desperate escape.

While on patrol one morning Captain Eric Hamilton discovers a dinghy floating aimlessly. Abby is found, battered and in an advanced state of pregnancy, lying in the bottom of the dinghy. From the moment she lay on the deck of his ship her innocence finds a way to penetrate his hardened heart. But time is running out. Eric is falsely accused of sexual assault and the CIA wants Abby and the baby for bait to flush out her captor.

I have never been a huge fan of romance novels, but Eckhart’s book has made a fan out of me. The tale is gripping, romantic, and vivid....read the entire review at http://balancingactzine.webs.com/bookreviews.htm

Hi, I just finished reading The Captain's Lady. I found it very interesting and exciting. It had everything going for it that a reader (like myself) looks for: flowing dialogue, drama, suspense, and romance. It was quite a journey that Abby and Eric made into each other's arms. I've read over a thousand same-type stories from sites such as Allromanceebooks, Samhain, and Ellora's Cave. This being said; I know what good is and The Captain's Lady is certainly in the top ten percent of the books I've read. It's a story I'll read again and again in the coming years.

Thank you so much for writing it and sharing it with us readers!

Take care and keep up the fine writing.

Most sincerely,

Colleen
