I really enjoyed this book despite the plot becoming increasingly ridiculous. I do think the author is aware of its ridiculousness and is just rolling with it. The main characters are perfectly wonderful and I enjoyed reading about them falling in love.

Interesting characters with Phoebe being blind. The multiple kidnappings were somewhat ludicrous but still a fun book.

I'm new to historical romance so trying out a few authors. The summary sounded sooooo good but the writing and characters were mid. I don't think Hoyt is for me sorry girl.

my first 4.5 ⭐ historical romance read! (aside from jane austen & other classics)

this story of an injured ex-captain guarding a high-born blind lady delivers peak angst

the later half/third of the book is pwp but the first half is chef's kiss

2.5 out of 5

WHEN DID THIS BECOME A WHORE HOUSEEEEE!!!!??? I REACHED 50% OF THE BOOK AND BOOM THEY HAD SEX!!!!

Okay jokes aside it was cute but I got bored the minute they acknowledged their feelings towards each other, and yes I skimmed the last 50 pages.
