This book was wonderful! It started off a little slow, and I felt like a bit of a book snob not wanting to it. BUT, once I got past that and the ship set sailed, boy was I in for a ride! It was funny, adventurous, witty, and just a great, enjoyable read. We meet American Georgie on a mission to find the loser she's been betrothed to for the last six years. She wants to know what happened to him, taking the bull by the horns- she goes to find answers herself in England. In doing so, she meets the brick wall a.k.a. James Malory. What she doesn't know is that when she tries to return to America, the ship she signs up to be a cabin boy on, is his ship. But he knows! When James can't keep up the charade any longer and reveals that he knows she's a girl it's a spectacular moment to read. Although they didn't verbalize their feelings until the very end, you can just feel how each one feels about the other. What a fantastic story told on the high seas, and a happy, rewarding ending. Johanna Lindsey has definitely captured my attention for Warren's story.
