A nice book full of Swashbuckling Pirates, Captains, crooked
magistrates, slave traders and damsels in Distress. It s a romance at its heart
and as such I found it to be a tad predictable in the plot flow but the story
was still enjoyable. I was able to follow along and really connect with Atia
and her losses, first her mother and younger brother who perish in the
shipwreck and then when she is separated from her sister Livia. I also liked
the selflessness of the doctor throughout the story as he rushes to try and
save people who are hurt, or doomed by their illness to die and being poor the
majority of his patients cannot pay him but he helps anyway. This was a
heartwarming character for me, not many of these are seen in these types of
books. This book is the first in a series and it does well to set the stage for
the next books to come.
