Perfect for you if...

You love historical romance where the female lead is genuinely competent and doesn't need rescuing, just understood.
You appreciate slow-burn tension between two people who want each other but can't admit it.
You're drawn to books with richly imagined settings and characters who feel lived-in rather than sketched.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer romance that prioritises plot momentum over emotional depth and character introspection.
You want steamier content. Kinsale writes tension more than explicit scenes.
You're looking for a lighter, faster read. This book rewards patient, immersive engagement.

About this book

Lady Tess Collier is an adventurous woman accustomed to exploring the world's remote regions. When her father, the Earl of Morrow, dies, she agrees to his final wish: to return to England and find a suitable marriage, accompanied by Gryphon Meridon as her guide and protector. Gryf, a sea captain, has been tasked with shielding Tess from unsuitable suitors. However, he struggles with his own deep feelings for her. A secret he cannot reveal to anyone prevents him from openly expressing his love. In their uncertain and dangerous world, the two must navigate the tension between duty, desire, and the possibility that love might be their salvation.
