Her Seafaring Scoundrel

Her Seafaring Scoundrel


The Crawfords, Book 3
by Sophie Barnes

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Lady Cassandra gave her heart and herself to her fiancee before their wedding… tragically her fiancee, Timothy was accidentally killed on the way to the wedding. Now, thirteen years later, still loves the husband she lost… and the daughter he gave her.

Always fond of family friend, Lady Cassandra, Captain Devlin is honour bound to defend her at a ball and accidentally announces his engagement to her. Now he has to make that happen…

After successfully convincing a woman, who never wanted to marry to marry him, they along with her daughter venture forward on a grand ocean adventure and Devlin attempt to make his wife fall in love with him.

I really enjoyed the big hearted character of Devin, he was always so understanding and loving… as for Cassandra, I found her extreme devotion to her deceased fiancee a bit much. Thirteen years is a long time, especially when you have a new person in your life who is making you feel again. The daughter Penelope was. Fun addition and played well off of Devlin and Cassandra. Another bright spot was the sea adventure. It was great fun to read about life on the ship and see the characters grow together in this environment.

Her Seafaring Scoundrel by Sophie Barnes is scheduled to release April 28th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from author Sophie Barnes through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion.

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
