The Heiress at Sea by Christi Caldwell

4.0

While normally a Caldwell fan, I really didn't care for the previous entry in this series and was therefore somewhat reluctant to start "The Heiress at Sea." However, it totally redeemed itself for me. I actually laughed out loud while reading this book, finding the banter between Cassia and others, especially Nathan, cheeky and fun. Cassia is literal, sheltered, and naive, which I found sweetly amusing, especially set against the reactions of others. I admired her spunk and her willingness to try and overcome all the things that went wrong on her grand adventure. She and Nathan together have great chemistry even as she frustrates the heck out him (in more ways than one!). I read this in a very enjoyable afternoon.

A couple quibbles - I would have liked a slightly more open door on the love scenes. I also thought the attack/rescue was a little too cute and the third act separation rather predictable. That said, I would still recommend this story.

3.75 stars rounded to 4. Thank you to Montlake and NetGalley for a complimentary ARC of this book. The opinions herein are my own.
