The narrators male voices can be a bit (unintentional) comical in some sections

Another strong female lead and another almost enemies to lovers situation with the added bonus of close quarters. Very much enjoyed it.

I'm not a huge fan of "captor" romances so, while I enjoyed the characters and the love story was endearing, I found myself constantly pulled out with that. That said, I enjoyed the book as a whole, I just likely won't be rereading it.

It’s got all of the makings of the normal Bridgerton formula but add in some pirates. This felt a lot like Hyacinth and Gareth from "It's In His Kiss" in their quippy, verbal sparring between the headstrong, adventure girl and the tall, rogue of a man. The plot felt a bit rushed in the last quarter of the book but it was still decent as far as Julia Quinn goes.

Yesterday was awful, so last night I decided to pick this up to read something that would lift my spirits. This book succeeded! I don't know if it is because of the years between the original Bridgerton series and this, but this series has so far proved to be <i>far</i> more entertaining and with characters that feel more fleshed out than the paper-thin Bridgertons and their spouses (sorry, that's just the way I feel about them).
