I just loved Poppy and Andrew - all of the stars, all of the romance
Sweet I liked the beginning interactions. Very cute and funny. Though the set up isn’t my usual favorite mostly since it was such a contained situation and then the end felt very rushed like this exploded and then just wrapped up real quick. Wished they had known each longer

This was a fun pirate romance. I enjoyed Poppy and Andrew's growing friendship throughout the book and their romance. The last third of the book seemed rushed and felt like their story needed something more. Similar to the last book, there is a lot of inner dialogue that slowed down the story at times. I will need to try another series by Julia Quinn, because I will be genuinely sad to leave her Bridgerton world.

I keep saying that Julia Quinn is one of my favorite authors and this book just proves my point even further.
In this book we get to know Andrew’s story, third in line of the Rokesby brothers. We got to meet him in book one, and we got a sense of his fun and playful personality and it didn’t get lost in book 3 for certain.
We also get to meet a different side of the Bridgerton family, specifically Poppy Bridgerton — a curious and adventurous mind.
It is known throughout these series that the Rokesbys and the Bridgertons are very familiar with each other, and it was rather interesting to see that in such large families sometimes someone gets lost in the crowd.
Curiosity led Poppy into Captain Andrew’s ship — not by choice — where a lot of secrets sailed within and where she found herself trapped in an unknown adventure to Portugal.
In a time where the myth that a woman on board was a bad omen, she was kept in the captain’s cabin for all sailor’s good sake. But when one has no one to talk but the captain himself and a 13-year-old boy, a lot can happen in a fortnight.
It was such a lovely book to read. I think Andrew’s personality and also Poppy’s was what made this such a great book. I lost count of the time I had to stop reading just to let myself laugh my ass off. They are feisty, and flirty, and awkward. But also caring, and understanding. They were truly a match made in heaven and this was a wonder to experience while reading!
On a side note, I’m from Portugal and I’m currently living in the US, and this book having its background in my homeland made me so happy as well? I might be a little biased but it filled me with joy nevertheless!
As always I think you should give these series a try if you’re into rom-com and period romances!
