________________________________________
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 smugglers’ 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 captain’s bed…
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, he’s 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 real-and his duty to the Crown means he’s 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 scandal-though 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 Andrew’s secret is revealed, will his declaration of love be enough to capture her heart…?

This book was an utter delight . . . I just loved it
An adventure on the high seas full of wit, charm and smoldering attraction, The Other Miss Bridgerton captivated me right away . . . an unputdownable story that I think romance fans will treasure
Quinn is a master of historical romance . . . Quinn makes even the most chaste passages smolder, the chemistry and romantic tension crackling off the page
Quinn's mastery of banter, character development, and the slow build of romantic and sexual tension is on full display in the newest Rokesby title (a series of 18th-century prequels to the Bridgerton Regency romances). Mentions of puzzles and architecture add interesting texture to an already compelling story. Delightful and charming
A witty, tender story, full of nuance and romance. Quinn excels in writing stories full of joy and delight, where laughter trembles on the edges. If you're a fan of Quinn's Bridgerton series, this book has its signature charm
Quinn's superlative third prequel to her Bridgerton Regency series introduces one of her most delightful couples yet . . . this is a real treat for Quinn's fans and anyone who loves historical romance
