I was a bit frustrated by this book. It had such a weird setup. I really liked Andrew in the previous book in the series. But it was hard to align him with kidnapping and risking Poppy’s future. I liked Poppy’s character a lot and the 2 as a couple it’s just a shame it had to be this strange setting.

This was CERTAINLY my favorite of the first three! The banter was really quite delightful. I think Poppy was a little too hopeful she could salvage the situation with any good result even with her letter though. Im very partial to pirate ship stories, which has possibly skewed my perception but overall this was the most intersting and adventurous. Julia Quinn touched on spies and working for king and country in the previous two books, but in a very bland way. This leaned all the way in making it wholly unique compared to the rest. The full commitment into this kind of plot was well done. I really appreciated how different this felt compared to some of the more formulaic work shes had.

This would have been a 4 star read but I felt it was lacking in adventure, specifically while they were at sea. I wish there would’ve been more action happening then but instead it was mostly just Poppy stuck in a room.

I read a lot of romance novels, and it’s not often that the plot of one surprises me! This book took a turn I did not see coming, which was fun. I guess it made up for the cringeworthy kidnapping part at the beginning… And the ending was perfectly emotional.
