I read it in one night! I could not put this one down! I really fun book! Cute quick read!

I loved this short romance. It was really cute and sweet. My favorite Evanovich romance so far.

I put off on reading this book for a long time after I got it for some reason, but I was pleasantly surprised!

Fun read! A good looking boat Captain (decendent of pirates), a woman who can't cook and a angry ghost. What combination could be better?

Good, humorous, easy reading as with Janet Evanovich's usual style.

Great book, very easy to read.

A romantic tale about a handsome ship's captain, a wench from Jersey City,a one hundred year old schooner, and a town full of shoemakers. There's some getting naked, some blueberry pie, more getting naked, and at the end....

Meh

In the world before Stephanie Plum, Janet Evanovich wrote romances - fluffy, silly - almost zany - romances like Love Overboard. Because of the popularity of the Plum books, most of these romances have been republished with new covers and sometimes new titles (this book was originally titled Ivan Takes a Wife).

It's a fun read, but the style reads almost like she is practicing for the Plum novels. Heck, the heroine's name is Stephanie (same as the Plum books). And although the majority of the book is set in Maine, the heroine's family is in New Jersey and she went to her parents' house for dinner every Sunday for most of her adult life. Sound familiar to anyone?

I've read several of the pre-Plum romances now. And as long as you don't expect too much of them, these books are great for a few hours of entertainment.

Very funny!!!

Good, quick read.

Stephanie Lowe decides Maine schooner captain and pirate descendent Ivan Rasmussen deserves to be called Ivan the Terrible. The house she just bought from him is falling apart and possibly haunted. He complains about her fish-eye stew and burnt chocolate chip cookies. He makes fun of her hair after she's had to comb it while using a toaster as a mirror. And on top of all that, he has the nerve to be charming, handsome and overboard in love with her. This is one pirate captain who is determined to acquire the treasure of a lifetime.

Love Overboard is a romantic tale about a handsome ship's captain; a wary wench from Jersey City; a hundred-year-old, two-masted schooner; and an entire town of shoemakers. There's some getting naked, some blueberry pie, more getting naked, and at the end . . . Okay, I won't tell you about the end, but it's really good and it'll make you feel happy.

quick, predictable, easy read

I was not overly impressed with this book.

I've read her complete Stephanie Plum series (loved them) and 2 Alex Barnaby books (liked them also) but this was the first "romance" book of hers that I've read. I'm not much for romance books so was skeptical. This book was easily read and held my interest, wasn't too mushy and had a little plot which kept me reading to the end. Lucy S.

Good book

This book offers a cute story. I love the female character in this book. I kind of feel like I have something in common with her, and it made it that much more enjoying to read!
