⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Captain Caliope Duke and her sister are partners in the ship their mother left them. They know the best way to protect it and themselves is to sail under the same shipping banner as their half brothers. That means Caliope must spend a little time in England a place she hates. Her brothers work out of an office in London, so there she must go.
Captain Lockhart Eversleigh joined the army because he needs to always stay in control. Fighting helps with that.
He's the youngest of a big happy family but they have had a big tragedy in the past that he is struggling with.
Family and relationship us a big factor in this story. The characters are a lot of fun, including the secondary ones that you know might have met in previous books. The heroine is a strong, intelligent and adventurous young woman. Our hero is set in his ways, but very loving to his family.
Great fun.
