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 as a 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...?
