The dialogue was great. I could visualize the characters coming to life as I read the story. The only thing that touched a nerve with me was that the conversations about sex were inappropriate and disappointing. I was hoping Ms. Blair would leave it out of her novel. But everything else was wonderful. I'm not sure I would take the chance to read another novel, even though I love how she creates the intense scenes for dramatic effect. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Lady Patience Kendall crossed the sea to marry, only to find her intended had died. Penniless, she created a comfortable way home. She charged to bring several rich American girls to England to find them titled husbands. However, life on board Captain Grant St. Benedict's ship was anything but comfortable, or without problems, not all caused by her girls. The arrogant Captain did nothing but scold her ... and arouse her curiosity about the rugged man beneath the uniform. One kiss might not ruin her reputation, but it did invite her to claim even sweeter delights... Grant had never met a woman more irritating, or more desirable, than Lady Patience Kendall. Yet she and her wards were enough to drive him to shore permanently. The girls' tendency to annoy the sailors, with small mishaps and large--like setting fire to the rigging--were nothing compared to the delicious distraction Patience provided. Grant had never met a woman more irritating ... or more desirable. Love was a greater risk than any storm at sea, but ultimately Grant couldn't resist the challenge of proving to Patience that independence was nothing to a lifetime of passion..." -- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The plot was decent. I liked Shane from the beginning. Grant and Patience were a bit annoying by the end of the book and too stuck in the beliefs borne of a troubled past.
There were interesting ebbs and flows in the action and some humorous moments (poor Horatio). I did have to suspend belief on a few things, but it didn't take me out of the story. I was a bit bothered by the speech and behaviors while the girls were on the ship though. The actions didn't seem to match the social standards expected of young women during that time frame.
I did enjoy the book once the girls arrived in London, but wasn't sold on the ending. It was way too forced. The book was a fun, fluffy read and good for a getaway...and it was a FREEBIE on Bookbub. I'll probably read more books by this author. (
