About this ebook

Historical romance takes to the high seas. Famed spy Lady Lisbeth Medford is on a ship bound for the West Indies, and the only thing more dangerous than her mission is the elusive Duke she's trying to capture.

Lady Lisbeth Medford, Countess of Waterstone and famed international spy, is caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. She's determined to infiltrate a notorious smuggling ring in the West Indies while on a covert mission as a ship's captain. But even when her identity is compromised and she's forced to flee, the men chasing her are still hot on her heels.

The trouble in front of her, however, might be even worse. Raphael Saint, the Duc de Viel, is her ship's new aggravating and dangerously charming sailing master, who might very well be part of the smuggling ring Lisbeth must bring to justice. But when a new deadly threat on the high seas looms, the only way out of danger is to face it...together.

The plot is solid and the characters well-developed. Lisbeth and Saint are great and the secondary characters are quite interesting, especially an adorable foul-mouth teen who has the hero, the heroine, and the entire ship’s crew wrapped around her little finger. I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and voluntarily reviewed it.

Romance on the high seas! Raphael and Lisbeth cross paths and cross each other plenty on their way to recognizing the value of each other's connections and history. This is an exciting tale of pirates, smuggling, and the search for justice. I adore this author's writing style and loved getting to know Lisbeth, especially after meeting her in the last book. I have to admit she's a little more "femdom" than suits my personal preferences, but that's not a mark against this book. Even with her unusual history, Raphael is more than a competent match for her as he keeps her guessing at every turn. There's a very satisfying HEA after all the Caribbean adventures, which were written so vibrantly that it seemed I could feel the rocking of the ship myself. So much swashbuckling fun, so much emotional depth, this was a true joy to read. I heartily recommend it for anyone who loves historical romances. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
