I'll start by saying I love Kinley Macgregor's books. I usually pick them up and can't put them down, but I labored through this one. I agree with another reviewer that the hero was likable but the heroine got on my nerves. If you love someone, you want to see them, even if you are watching from afar. I don't know, I just wasn't feeling this one at all...my least favorite MacGregour book of all. Highly recommend her MacAllister and Brotherhood series though.

I'm starting to find myself disliking MacGregor's female lead more and more. After Morgan and Serenity finally admit that they love each other she up and leaves him (not too surprising there). Morgan spent *over a year* looking for her. When he finally comes face-to-face with her she gets mad at him for not finding her sooner! After knowing everywhere he went to find her she made her friends promise not to tell him where she was, she has no right to be mad at him! I don't know what it is about MacGregor/Kenyon (same person) that makes so many of her "heroines" so annoying. They don't ever do anything heroic. Then the author had the gall to say that Morgan didn't deserve her. Other way around in this reader's opinion. There were quotes mentioned about "wrapping Morgan around her finger" and "bringing him under her heel" which is all well and good if it's jokingly, right? Nope, this woman was serious. If that had been Morgan's thinking towards her this book would have so many low ratings. At least Morgan overcame his "woman should be sheltered" attitude but Serenity didn't learn a thing.
I loved Morgan but Jack's story was better. Not only did Jack get more emotional in his book but Lorelei was more tolerable than Serenity. If you must read both then read Master of Seduction very first otherwise you won't know Jack and Jake are the same person and the reason behind that.
If you can get past the horrid female lead, A Pirate of her Own is a good book to waste some time but not something that really sticks with you.

In an era where women were expected to marry, have children and abide by their husbands' wishes, Serenity James knows she was cut from a different mold. Instead of learning to knit and sew, she learned to read and write. If not for her father's tolerance, she would never have made a career in writing. However, writing isn't the only thing she desires. Serenity longs for adventure and independence. But with the lack of action in Savannah, it seems that she is destined to die a spinster, not having seen the rest of the world, nor having been engaged in a bold adventure. Until she makes the mistake of writing about the notorious Sea Wolf...
All across the sea, the mere mention of the Sea Wolf sends shivers down the spines of even the most unlawful pirates. Once enslaved by the British navy, Morgan Drake has made it his life's purpose to free impressed American sailors from his British enemies. For many years, he has kept his real identity a secret and will do anything to ensure that no one finds out the truth about him. Thus, it was to his shock when a reporter unwittingly comes close to revealing his identity. And boy has he got a fish to fry! That is before he overcomes his shock of finding out that the reporter S.S. James is, in fact, a woman - a rather attractive woman with an attitude to boot!
What comes subsequent is the hilarious kidnapping of Serenity by Morgan's old friend, Black Jack Rhys, the hero from MASTER OF SEDUCTION. And if Serenity is yearning for adventure, that is exactly what she will get - a fun, dangerous and seductive adventure. Morgan is exactly the man of her dreams and she is about to give this pirate a lesson in love. As for Morgan, Danger seems a more appropriate name for Serenity, as he finds himself dealing with matters of the heart that he had long ago avoided.
While this isn't the best pirate book I have read, A PIRATE OF HER OWN manages to entertain with its witty dialogue and fun characters. It's not a bad novel if you're after a quick, fun read.

This book drove me absolutely insane. I only finished the book because I loved the hero Morgan Drake. Serenity made me want to rip this book apart, only it wasn't my book to destroy. The woman was infuriating, look I totally enjoy reading books where the women are independent but this was beyond sanity. Also as previous reviewers stated the ending was so RUSHED it didn't make any sense what-so-ever. The book I recommend is Master of Seduction Jakes story aka Jacob Dudley. Know that was a good book.

If you want an easy romantic read with a pirate twist then this is worth the read. There's adventure on the high-seas, a handsome, somewhat secretive male protagonist in Morgan Drake and of course a strong-willed heroine in Serenity who finds herself thrown into what might at very first seem to be more trouble then she can handle. What can I say the feminist in me likes to see the female characters take control, which Serenty is certainly able to do!
