Excitement heralds the arrival of Captain Brendan Jay Merrick, a dashing privateer whose daring sea battles against His Majesty’s fleet have made him a legend in the American colonies. Brendan has plans for the Ashton Shipyard to build his magnificent new schooner. But one look at the handsome Irishman, and Ashton’s daughter Mira is making plans of her own… schemes and mistress of spunk — disguises herself as a crew member and sneaks aboard the newly built Kestrel to become the schooner’s sharpest gunner… and the captain’s most outrageous distraction. As passions flare, desire explodes with the turbulence of an angry sea with Mira competing against Kestrel for Brendan’s love. But when tragedy strikes, Mira must join forces with her mighty rival in a daring adventure that turns the tide of battle and brings glorious victory to the colonists, the captain… and the lady who has captured his heart.

Romance in the Colonies I am sure it was there!
This book is one I would highly recommend. It is romantic and adventerous. The characters are noble, heroic, sometimes flawed, but very entertaining. In addition the plot is action packed, full of mishaps, and fun.
The characters got a little tiresome after a while, and I just skipped to the end.
Good read kept me interested. I found the characters a good match.
Love this story. Made me laugh out loud at 3 a.m.
