Description During Books The Winds of Fate

Claire Hamilton will do anything to avoid marrying the vile duke to whom her uncle has her betrothed—including marrying convicted felon Dr. Devon Blackmon, a prisoner in Newgate Prison.

In retaliation, Claire is banished to the wild outpost of Jamaica, where on impulse she buys a slave of her own, only to discover that she has inadvertently bought her own husband—a move that does anything but endear him to his new “wife.”

Forced together in order to fight the deadly plague ravaging the island, Claire and Blackmon slowly develop a forbidden friendship that neither expected. Wildly untrusting on both sides, they struggle to navigate their newfound positions—until Blackmon seizes a chance to escape, soon rising to fame as the Black Devil Pirate, commanding his Caribbean kingdom and striking fear in the crowned heads of Europe.

But the outlaw is not finished with Claire yet, as their paths eventually cross once again and Blackmon takes her captive.

Caught in a war between France, England, and their own hearts, will Claire and Blackmon survive?

Crit About Books The Winds of Fate
Great ReadI found this book to be a great read The characters are strong and very believable. The plot was moved by the action of the characters and story. The love story between the two characters drew me into the plot and kept me on the edge of my seat. All in all a great read.

This book turned me on to another great author! It takes place in 1685, a period that I don't usually read, but I was intrigued based on some reviews that I read on the book. Claire Hamilton races to find a husband to get out of the 'clutches' of her greedy Uncle, who has sold her into marriage to a withering aged Duke. The Duke has the reputation of having had many young wives that mysteriously disappeared after just a couple of years. As is the custom in the day, nobility were above the law;

An enjoyable, mesmerizing and educational debut read.......This was my first novel by Ms. St. Michel....I will definitely be reading more of her books. The setting begins in London during the Georgian era, under the realm of King James..... Dr. Devon Blackmon is about to be executed for a crime he didn't commit. When a lovely young woman is brought to him in the Newgate Prison. She has a strange request of him, but he ends of acquiescing to her request, as he's hours away from death.Claire

A tale of a man whose life has been hard who meets a woman whose life has been harder. They marry in a prison cell and part forever. Then fate takes over.

This is the story of Claire Hamilton and Dr Devon Blackmon, and what an adventure it is! Claire's fate is in the hands of her wretched, evil uncle Jasper, until she takes matters into her own hands by marrying a convicted prisoner set to hang later that evening. But fate steps in and they find themselves face to face in Jamaica.... and so this twisting and turning tale of deception, trust, romance, love, hate and betrayal begins! Strap yourselves in, because it certainly will be a bumpy ride!!

Just couldn't finish it.While the opening scene of 'The Winds of Fate was promising, it quickly gave way to a below average story rife with historical inaccuracies, clunky dialog and awkward shifts in POV, all of which might be forgivable if the story was interesting and the characters likable. I tried to finish but stopped at the 50% mark on my Kindle.

I've read a number of these reviews, and will agree that there are a number of cliches and poor editing, but I didn't feel they distracted me from the story much. As I read, the plot seemed new and exciting to me. Admittedly, I have never read Shanna, so might read that soon. It's been so many years since I've watched Captain Blood, that I can't remember any similarities there either.For me, the book started a bit slow, but soon picked up. Sometimes I laughed at their antics, and I have to admit
