Looking for a Hero

Rating:
Summary: A different but delightful amnesiac romance
Review: As the storm punishes his ship, Satan's Revenge, Morgan "Blackheart the Pirate" Farrell expects to die. However, Morgan can't find respite in the storm because his vile enemy Thomas Low has escaped from below. The pair duel and Morgan is winning when lightning strikes his sword and eventually Morgan falls over aboard.

When he regains consciousness, Morgan finds himself on the beach of his retreat island just off of Florida. To his shock a woman Kate Cameron and her child Casey are also there. His own centuries-old hut stands in ruins. Morgan learns that somehow he has been propelled into the future. As he beings to love the widow and her six year old daughter, Morgan finds out that his old enemy has joined him the future.

Readers LOOKING FOR A HERO need only read Patti Berg's latest time travel tale to find a genuine candidate. Morgan is a passionate, understanding person, who struggles with the evil that destroyed his family even as he wants to start anew with the Cameron females. Kate is a kissable person, whose loneliness makes her vulnerable and thus under the pirate's protection. The time travel story line is well written, though readers will have to leap as far Morgan and Thomas did to accept the premise. Still a great story that will thrill the most romantic of time traveler fans.

Summary: This is my fave Patti Berg Novel so far!!!
Review: I do not believe that this book is too religious. In fact I didn't find it religious at all. Most people pray to a god when they think their life is in danger. I also didn't feel as though this book was missing anything either. i read it in one day! I could not put it down. I am so glad Ms. Berg added the Epilogue at the end. I would have been upset if I did not know what the future held for the 2 characters. If you haven't read this book yet, go out and get it right away, you won;t be sorry.

Summary: Can I have my own HERO??? PLEASE!!!!
Review: Looking for a hero is not your typical time travel romance novel. For starters it is the guy (Morgan aka Black Heart) who is brought into the future. He is in a fierce storm and somehow his arch enemy Thomas Low escapes from the gallows and they begin to fight. Morgan is winning and then....WHAM....he is hit by lightening and transported to the future where he washes up on an island beach in FL. On the island he is surprised to find Kate and Casey Cameron. Kate is a woman who has lost her first true love husband to a robbery and is afraid to love again. But the chemistry between Morgan and Kate is almost instant and in now time Kate has taken Morgan into her home and is trying to help him return to the past. But is this really what he wants????? Did you forget Thomas Low (the arch enemy)? Well don't, because strange murders start to happen all over town.....This was a delightful book and for once I am not going to give away the ending....read it for yourself.

Summary: Lok No Further - Great Hero Inside
Review: Looking for a Hero is truly a delight to read. Not only is the cover just a joy to look at -- kudos to the publisher on that -- but the inside is as much fun as the outside. I loved everything about this book, and while I don't read many time travels, this one enchanted me from the very beginning. Morgan Farrell is everything heroic, and Kate Cameron is his perfect match. You'll be chanting Shiver me Timbers by the time you reach the end, and looking over your shoulder for a guy with a cutlass and an eyepatch. I'd happily recommend this book to any of my friends. Patti Berg has delivered another top notch read!

Summary: This is my fave Patti Berg Novel so far!!!
Review: Looking for a hero made me want to go to St. Augustine, spyglass in hand, wandering the shoreline for my very own pirate. Neither Wife for a Day nor Born to be Wild can hold a candle to this feel-good tale. Our hero was scarred inside and out, but still clung to his humanity. Kate had a lovely child and thought of her dead husband with affection. How refreshing! The epilogue was one of the sweetest I've read in a long, long time. Thank you Ms. Berg for this charming story.

Summary: Religious undertones turned me off.
Review: Patti Berg is becoming one of my favorite authors after only reading two of her books; "Wife For A Night" and now "Looking For a Hero". Couldn't put it down until I had finished it even though I had laundry screaming to be done!

"Looking For A Hero" is one of the few books I would read more then once. Morgan Farrel, aka Blackheart, is one of the sexiest hero's to hit the pages of any romance book! I would love to see this wonderful author bring Morgan and Kate back in another novel....it would be a surefire best seller before it was even on the store shelves!

Summary: "Every good pirate has a plan."
Review: So states Morgan "Blackheart" Farrell, to some a pirate, to others "Robin Hood of the High Seas." When his ship is suddenly caught up in an otherworldly 'Bermuda Triangle,' Morgan finds himself cast ashore on the same island as widow Kate Cameron and her daughter, Casey, have found themselves stranded--all by a hurricane no one else seems to have experienced. Trouble is, he thinks it's 1702 and it's really 1998. Worse--not only did he travel nearly 300 years into the future, but so did his ship and his arch enemy, Thomas Low.

Having lived through the tragic loss of her husband, Kate is getting on with her life but definitely not ready to lose her heart to, of all people, a man claiming to be a pirate. But as time passes, events occur that lead Kate to change her mind about Morgan---in more ways than one, as he, at the same time, struggles with choices that will keep him with Kate or send him back to the past without her.

With BORN TO BE WILD, Patti Berg became an automatic-buy for me and I was able to obtain all of her backlisted books. LOOKING FOR A HERO has a poignant love story, suspense, revenge, fast-paced delightful and believable dialogue, sympathetic characters and a hero to die for--all woven together in an endearing romantic style that is totally Berg.

Summary: Totally entertaining - a delightful read!
Review: This is the most entertaining book I've read in some time! It's a story to get lost in. Enough tears and sadness to involve the emotions, and enough romance to involve them even more! Morgan Farrell is a wonderful hero and Kate Cameron the kind of heroine you really want to have a happy ending.
