#1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn continues her Bridgerton prequel series with a new novel following the adventuresโand love storiesโof the Bridgerton and Rokesby families
She was in the wrong place...
Fiercely independent and adventurous, Poppy Bridgerton will only wed a suitor whose keen intellect and interests match her own. Sadly, none of the fools from her London season qualify. While visiting a friend on the Dorset coast, Poppy is pleasantly surprised to discover a smugglersโ hideaway tucked inside a cave. But her delight turns to dismay when two pirates kidnap her and take her aboard a ship, leaving her bound and gagged on the captainโs bedโฆ
He found her at the wrong time...
Known to society as a rascal and reckless privateer, Captain Andrew James Rokesby actually transports essential goods and documents for the British government. Setting sail on a time-sensitive voyage to Portugal, heโs stunned to find a woman waiting for him in his cabin. Surely, his imagination is getting the better of him. But no, she is very realโand his duty to the Crown means heโs stuck with her.
Can two wrongs make the most perfect right?
When Andrew learns that she is a Bridgerton, he knows he will likely have to wed her to avert a scandalโthough Poppy has no idea that he is the son of an earl and neighbor to her aristocratic cousins in Kent. On the high seas, their war of words soon gives way to an intoxicating passion. But when Andrewโs secret is revealed, will his declaration of love be enough to capture her heartโฆ?
