I liked how feisty Violet was and how she never gave up trying to help Lyon.

This book took me a long time to read. I was interested in Violet and Flint but not riveted by them.

Mark me down as obsessed!!! One month ago I have never heard about this author now I would give my life to her!!!
How every single book of this series manages to be engaging, never the same and so so so good at longing!!! The sex scenes are some of the best that I have ever read, booktok writers should read this series to finally learn how a sex scene should be.

She stows away on his ship!! Truly an underutilized premise if you ask me!
Anyways I really like this book, probably the most in the series. I always like the first book in a series of historical romances about families that's about the headstrong, impossible daughter. Violet and her quest are irresistible, and Long does a perfect job of putting her on page such that she shows you from the jump who she is and what she's about. She's the best match for Flint, a perfect impulsive foil to his calculated nature. As with all Long's books, it's a slow burn to the sex but it's worth the wait. And as with all her books, they can't get 5 stars from me because they end too abruptly. Give me more!!
