To Catch a Pirate

To people who like the idea of reading a book that is a historical fiction adventure and a romance all at once,  To Catch a Pirate by Jade Parker could fit your style.

Set in the Caribbean of the 1700s, this story is about a young woman, Annalisa Townsend. Her father has been sent by King George to govern a small town on an island. While sailing to the island with money intended to help finance the town, their ship is attacked by pirates. They steal the money, and Annalisa’s father is arrested because the royal governor of New Providence thinks he helped the pirates take the money. A year later, Annalisa forges a letter claiming she has permission to hunt down pirates and sets out to regain the stolen money, capture the pirates who stole it, and thereby free her father. James Sterling,who is one of the pirates who helped steal the treasure, stumbling across Annalisa in the process, is specifically hunted by the young woman in the hope that he’ll know where the money is hidden. But she begins to find herself succumbing to his charm and falling in love with him instead…

I would give this book a rating of 10 out of 10. I would recommend it for teens fourteen and older, though, as it has some rude language and several battle scenes.
