Amazon Review
Well-written love story. Intriguing deception. A hot hero that will leave you breathless.
Beautifully written page turner. Could not put it down!!
Amazon Review
I have just finished the story and could not put my kindle down until I finished. Loved it from beginning to the end. I did see insight into Miles and what he went through at a time when his father remarried and the manner in which he was treated by his step brother and step mother. That was enough for me to formulate a picture of his life at that time.
Feisty Heroine and a Hero to Die for
Lisa - Amazon Review
The Pirate Lord is a delight with its feisty heroine and a hero to die for. The story moves at a super pace, and I loved the gorgeous settings. There’s grand houses, a pirate ship and a Caribbean island...all beautifully described. The passionate love between Eloise and Zach feels real and moving. I adored this story. You will too. Now I can't wait for Vanda's next book. Hope it's soon.
Love, intrigue and secret identities
Josephine - Amazon Review
If you're looking for a fast-paced historical involving a feisty heroine, a sexy pirate with a hidden agenda -- liberally laced with intrigue and some steamy sex -- this one's for you. Vanda Vadas ticks all the boxes in her first novel. I look forward to the next book(s) from this talented author.
Five Stars!

What a great debut book! I'm always sceptical of new authors but this proved me wrong! I loved Eloise's character from the start with her stubbornness and ability to wield a sword! I enjoyed how the story unfolded with 'Zach'! Definitely one to leave you warm and fuzzy! I would 100% recommend this! Looking forward to more from this author!
