One of the best book in the series so far. Lucia is a hard character to love. She's just soooo stubborn and too cocky for her own good. I hated her especially when she was purposefully hitting and harming Garreth even though the guy only wanted to protect her. Garreth on the other hand, i loved his character the moment i read that its been a year and he's still chasing after Lucia..what a resilience he has to persevere like that. His line "still ruggedly handsome" is etched on my mind. I also love how sweet he was to Lucia aboard the ship. The butterfly and the flower blew me away. I mean, an alpha male doing that? awww... 
 I must say.. i had a hard time picturing the Amazon. But i liked it that there were odd creatures mentioned. It just made the book exciting. Maybe not the best plot because of the really complicated heroine.. but the best hero so far (for me). ^_^
