My next guest is the uber-awesome…
Shana Galen!
Shana’s latest release is THE ROGUE PIRATE’S BRIDE
Revenge should be sweet, but it may cost him everything…
The Marquis de Valère escaped certain death in the French Revolution and is now an infamous privateer. Out to avenge the death of his mentor, Bastien discovers himself astonishingly out of his depth when confronted with a beautiful, daring young woman who is out for his blood…
Forgiveness is unthinkable, but it may be her only hope…
British Admiral’s daughter Raeven Russell believes Bastien responsible for her fiancé’s death. But once the fiery beauty crosses swords with Bastien, she’s not so sure she really wants him to change his wicked ways…

Erroll Flynn usually pops in my mind 1st when thinking about pirate heroes 🙂 In books, I really liked the pirates that Julia Garwood included in her regency romances (Guardian Angel & The Gift)

How about One-Eyed Willie from The Goonies?? Lol.
No, actually it would be Orlando Bloom as Will Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean.

My favorite pirates are Grace O’Malley and Mary Read. I love the strength the female pirates showed.

Someone I’ve yet to learn more about. I have a dutch ancestor who was a pirate. We’re still working on the research to learn more.

Love Captain Jack Sparrow!!! jlscott49 at roadrunner dot com

I absolutely LOVE that the woman is holding the sword on the cover. My favorite pirate is Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow but Johanna Lindsey’s James Mallory is a VERY close second.
This story sounds like it’s going to be exciting to read. I have a feeling Bastien and Raeven are going to find their place firmly in my heart. The names this couple have are beautiful. I mentioned on other posts about how beautiful covers have been recently and this is one has been one of my favorites since I first saw it. Thank you for the contest chance 🙂

Toss up between James Mallory (Johanna Lindsey) or Wesley/Dread Pirate Roberts from the princess bride. I fell in love with them in my teen years and they have stuck with me ever since.
April 3rd, 2012 at 9:27 pm · Link
The Dread Pirate Roberts and Will Turner.
April 3rd, 2012 at 9:27 pm · Link
have to agree with melissa withthe james mallory or dread pirate roberts and jacksparrow

If we are going with favorite in looks, that one is definitely Captain Jack Sparrow. If we are going with favorite in general though I would have to say Davy Jones from the POTC movie Dead Man’s Chest. That man embodies love and devotion to a woman, he loved Calypso so much that he would rather live without his heart than her love. Besides that, Bill Nighy makes an awesome Davy Jones!

I love Bobbi Smith’s Pirate Books!

Pirate Black Jack from Mari Carr’s story, Black Jack 🙂
April 3rd, 2012 at 11:44 pm · Link
My favorite pirate would be Long John Silver from Treasure Island. He is just the pirate that you would love to hate but can’t.
April 3rd, 2012 at 11:55 pm · Link
Captain Jack Sparrow ;). He’s just too much fun.

Captain Jack Sparrow from movies (cause you gotta love Johnny Depp) and I loved Captain Jack in Stephanie Lauren’s Captain Jack’s Woman
April 4th, 2012 at 9:27 am · Link
Definitely Dread Pirate Roberts!

Wesley from The Prinncess Bride
April 4th, 2012 at 11:45 am · Link
Hands down, Pirate Will in the Pirates of the Caribbean (hello, if all pirates could look like Orlando Bloom!). But Wesley from Princess Bride is great too!

Captain Jack Sparrow! That swagger is just infectious.

Errol Flynn ( I’m showing my age here, lol) and Jack Sparrow would do in a pinch.

Jack Sparrow is my vote also!
