Jackson's Treasure

De: Renee Riva

Narrado por: Samuel Deeter

When Peyton Abercrombie runs away from an arranged betrothal, she is soon discovered by Captain Jackson Lafitte stowing away aboard the Mon Cherisse.

"Did you say your last name is Lafitte?" Peyton glanced around the Captain's cabin. "Oh my goodness; a sword, a crew of uncultured men, barrels and barrels of who knows what all…you, Captain, are a pirate! ....I am on a pirate ship!"

"I prefer to call it a cargo ship," Jackson replied. "And I'm sorry to inform you that you won't be staying."

"Oh, please let me stay - I promise I won't be any trouble." Peyton looked longingly into Jackson's eyes with a silent plea. Jackson sighed, knowing it was a crazy request. "I'll take you as far as Grand Isle - but that's it."

"Truly?"

"You'll have to stay hidden until we dock." Jackson glanced around the cabin. "I'll sleep in the bunk room with the men. Where are you planning to sleep?"

"The top bunk here looks fine to me."

"That's Sinbad's bed."

"Who's Sinbad?"

"My cat."

"Your cat? Pirates don't have cats, they have parrots. What kind of pirate are you, anyway?"

Peyton received a pair of raised eyebrows, strongly suggesting that she was pushing her luck.

"Oh, fine, I'll sleep with your cat."

Enjoy the voyage as this romantic comedy erupts upon stormy seas...

Quick historical romance listen

Loved this! A quick listen that packs plenty of action, humor, and romance. Great characters and a highly entertaining story. Fantastic narrator as well, he had unique voices for each character. I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

short but sweet

Such a sweet story with a bit of humor, adventure, crime, and action. Payton escapes her stepfather and the man he has bequeathed her to. She does away on a ship. Thinking the captain is a pirate. The captain agrees to rescue her. Renee Reba has done A great job with this short historical romance. The story was complete. It did not feel rushed or missing parts. Samuel Fester was amazing with his narration.

Short romance of a strong female and a pirate

This was a short story of a strong woman who wasn't about to be forced into a marriage she didn't want and a pirate who turned out to be different than she expected. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Lovely stow away pirate story

Here is the story of stow away Payton and the pirate captain Jacques “Jackson”. Enjoyable short listen. Good story combined with good narration.

A fun and funny story on the high seas

I don't normally like pirate stories, but wanted to give this one a chance when I read the blurb. It was a fun story and funny with adventure and romance. I like the way Renee Riva writes (this the first of her books that I have read). The characters were fun and the cat actually made me like cats for once.:)


I like Samuel's voice, pacing and phrases. I do think that his slight southern twang was a bit "off" for a story about a pirate who's family is from France. Even with that little distraction, the story was fun to listen to and Samuel's voice was pleasant, I hope he will narrate westerns.

Quick Fun Listen

I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. This was a funny story that shows what a determined woman will do to save herself. I loved the cat and the way the crew helped the islanders to rebuild after the hurricane. It took her a while before she realized that he was not a pirate but he was her pirate and the fool's gold was a good twist. The narrator made the story come to life.

Jackson’s Treasure

Running from an arranged marriage and straight into the arms of an honorable pirate. This is a short sweet romance with a bit of comedy added. I loved the little twist that was thrown in. An enjoyable listen.

Jackson's Treasure

The story is short and sweet, with a few minor twists. The gold twist was my favorite. The story is fast paced and your able to finish it all in one sitting. Peyton is a strong lead female character and the captain at first appears to be a pirate, but I think its more of a cover.
