Willy is abusive when he is drunk and he is drunk most of the time. After being locked in a trunk for hours, Alexander decides that she will run away to London and beg her aunt to take her to India with her.
When one of his crew is captured by Greystone, Nathaniel decides to kidnap his half sister, Lady Anne, in order to bargain for his crewman's release. The only problem is Nathaniel has never seen Lady Anne and they kidnap Alexandra instead. Instead of a quick exchange, they are forced to take Alexandra on the pirate ship.

The book is fast-paced and very exciting. I really liked the main characters and the supporting characters are great, too. The villains are indeed villainous. And the ending is very satisfactory. Get the book. You won't be sorry.

Of Noble Birth edition by Brenda Novak Romance eBooks Reviews
Nathaniel is born with 1 arm. His father wanted to kill him as a newborn because of it instead the maid escapes with him.
Then the story moves forward where Nathaniel is older, he became a pirate to bait his fathers shipping fleet.
He then comes up with a plan to kidnap his half-sister. With some confusion he kidnaps a seamstress instead of his sister.
There is an attraction between Alexandra and Nathaniel, she tells him she is not his sister and even though he is attracted to her he does not believe her completely although he has doubts.
As they are in his cabin on his ship the space is cramped and she can't help but feel something for him.
Because of the attraction she plays hot and cold on being his sister as she feels that she would be safe from the crew if they think she is his sister.
When Nathaniel captures Jake the truth comes out.
But Alexandra wants a husband and children and Nathaniel does not believe that he can give her that.
I admired the fact that she fell in love with him even though he only had one arm and she saw him without a shirt.
When I thought the story would be ending I still had 50% of the book left.
Then all the twists and turns with his father start.
A good book.
There are very few books that have stories like this book. There are so many twists and turns you really don't know what will happen next. It's not the same old plot that you can see what's going to happen in the last half of the book. Lots of action, many great characters and always exciting.
Please tell me there will be a sequel!!! "Of Nobel Birth" by Brenda Novak, had everything a good romance should have, action, adventure and attraction.
An engaging tale, where a babe of Nobel birth, born less than perfect , is rescued from an attempt on his life by his very own father, the Duke of Greystone. Much to the displeasure of the Duke, he lives to become a pirate, scoundrel to some, yet an honorable man, Capt. Nathaniel Kent of the ship the ROYAL VENGEANCE. I loved the strength of this unlikely hero who is not perfect in body but of his soul, who won me with his charm.
Alexandra Cogsworth, a seamstress, a young lady, abused by the cruelty and greed of her own father, was a perfect character to turn Nathaniel's world upside down. She is a strong female lead, but she doesn't know that yet, I love where we get to watch her grow into herself as a woman.
A kidnapping, a mistaken identity, bold decisions to change a life's path, go awry, sets the stage for a sequence of events that challenge them as individuals and draws them together, in spite of themselves. Nathaniel thinks he has kidnapped his half-sister, Anne, to trade for a friend his father has captured. He is puzzled as to why he is drawn to his half-sister Anne of whom he has never met. But it is not Anne, but Alexandra, who too finds herself drawn to him, which adds to the tension. Fearing her fate if he learns the truth of her real identity, she fights the attraction, and plans her escape. What Alexandra doesn't realize is that Nathaniel highly suspects is that she is not his sister, but keeps the pretense to keep her safe from his pirate crew.
At a point, Ok, I got worried as to where this book was going to go, as I am not into the incest thing. Cautiously I did continue to read and found it does not go in that direction, how Novak directed her hero, Nathaniel in this situation only, made me love him more.
Brenda Novak's supporting cast of characters, her vivid descriptions of the landscape of where the story takes place, enriched this exciting tale. Novak's romantic twists of the attraction, the fighting of the characters within themselves as they battle with their dreams of what LOVE, and family mean to them, were realistic.
Some complained that it was not romantic enough and that it had TOO much adventure. This was a perfect romance for me, as romance is not just being hot in bed, with graphic details(none here), IT IS ABOUT THE DANCE "BEFORE" you get there. Overall I found myself trapped, delightfully so, within this fast moving novel, with no errors in the editing, spelling and grammar of this heartwarming romantic tale.
