Lady Cat rules!, Mar 14 2003
This review is from: Destinys Lady (Paperback)
Catherine and Victoria were born twins to Geoffrey and Evangeline Carlisle. Edward was Geoffrey's half brother. He had loved Evangeline, but she loved and married Geoffrey. In his madness he had their house set on fire when Catherine and Victoria were but one year old. A servant found Catherine up that night and instinctively hid when she heard men coming into the house. Once the fire was set, she saw she would be unable to alert the rest of the family. To save the baby, she fled into the night. She gave the baby to an Irish outlaw before she died in hopes of finding a home for the baby.
The outlaw, Sean O'Banyon, took her home to his wife to raise her as his own. Catherine grew up with two older brothers and in a family of pirates. Needless to say, she learned many skills females were not suppose to have. As for Victoria, the family survived the house fire. Everyone believed Catherine and the servant had died in the fire. Victoria grew up as an only child with an intelligent head for business, like her father and a lovely lady. The sisters never knew they had a twin somewhere else in the world.
Catherine became known as "Lady Cat" a notorious female pirate, who had no parallel! Miles Grayson captured Lady Cat and was amazed to find she looked exactly like his fiancé, Victoria, who had recently been abducted. An idea was born to find Victoria with Cat's help. Thus begins the incredible story of twin sisters and the romance they find with two amazing men.
*** Readers, that is the basis of the story. To tell more would let out too many surprises. Edward would unknowingly give both much grief and pain. However, he would also unknowingly bring the family back together. I was enchanted by all the twists and surprises within the complicated plot the author, Susan Grace, had created. I do not begin to tell all the trouble and amazing things. This is an incredible tale that all romance readers would do well to keep an eye out for! ***

This book was amazing. Ms.Grace is a very detailed writer. She takes you right into the story and you feel as if you are the heroines themselves. I loved the missing twin storyline. I loved the fact they fell in love with the other's fiance'. And though Uncle Edward drove me insane with his deviousness, he redeemed himself at the end. It brought tears to my eyes when he saved Lady Cat. I look forward to more of Miles and Cat's story. I've already read Golden Fire about their son. Great book, too.
