Release Date: July 23, 2019
Genre: Clean Regency Romance
When a determined heiress tries to convince a reluctant captain to stay invested in her bank, she risks losing everything, including her heart.
Lucy Brook is desperate. With two measly weeks to save her bank, she chases her wealthiest patron to a house party. But the more she comes to know the ruggedly handsome war hero, the more she fears revealing her purpose.
Captain Jack Sharpe excels at seamanship. Navigating politics, however, is an entirely different matter. But despite his lack of polish, he must succeed or fellow naval men will hang. When an intriguing bluestocking ends up in the wrong place, his intuition tells him pursuing her may wreck his course. Still, he’s resolved to try.
As the unlikely pair find themselves falling for each other, will his past and her determination to keep the bank at any cost end up jeopardizing their future?
My Review ♥️
The chemistry between Lucy and Jack is evident from their first humorous chance meeting and throughout every witty conversation, the banter charming. Lucy Brook is a rare gem in this era, being a strong-willed and independent woman in a position of power, with a good head on her shoulders, and Jack does nothing but support her, which goes against the opinions of almost every man in that time period. That fact was just one of the pieces of this story that won me over.
A house party with an uncommon twist, a cast of characters that are easy to become enchanted by, and a sweet tale that was over way too soon, The Captain's Lady captured my heart and imagination.
My Rating: ★★★★★
