Publisher's summary

At 28, Lady Arabella Niven is gentle, sickly, and firmly on the shelf. Having disobliged her father by refusing her last chance of marriage, she has been sent in disgrace to Blackhaven with two domineering aunts. Her one wish is to be left alone in a quiet cottage to write books on history.

However, everything changes when she tries to rescue a naked man apparently drowning at sea. Thus begins an odd, fun friendship that quickly becomes passionate. For Captain Alban, the hero with a shady past, is rebellious and unconventional by nature.

Marriage between such a man and a duke's daughter is inconceivable, and yet Alban's feelings for her drive him to face his past in order to create a new future that would be unendurable without her.

Oppressive family, neglected children, fortune hunters, past loves, and old crimes all contrive to keep the pair apart. But when danger threatens Alban, it is the duke's gentle daughter who rides to his rescue.

A great listen

The narration was great! She did a wonderful job with the different characters. The story was original and kept my attention throughout.

Opposites attract: Lovable MCs and Subtle Humor

Great find on audible plus! The story was interesting, it moved along well and all the sequences made sense. Low angst, but very satisfying. The MCs were lovable. The hero was an honorable scoundrel (my favorite type); brave, determined, and charming. The heroine Arabella at first seemed docile and bookish, but the reader soon discovers that she is intelligent, quietly courageous, and surprisingly pragmatic. I love the way Arabella rescues herself and others (including a macho pirate) without any fanfare. She just does it.
For those who are interested, there is passion, but not a lot of sex, just one bedroom scene that’s not particularly graphic.
This is the second book I’ve read by Mary Lancaster and I will definitely l keep an eye out for more.
