The Covert Captain: Or, A Marriage of Equals by Jeannelle M. Ferreira
4.0
3.5 ⚔️ - Gallant Capt Nathaniel Flemming, or Nora to those close enough to know her Christian name, won me over.
I agree 100% with everyone who says it takes a bit to get into this book because the language patterns and vocabulary are very much "of the time". I even contemplated just skipping it, however, it really does put you back there and once I got the hang of it I really enjoyed the book. I do love me some Pride and Prejudice, and, Gentleman Jack, is, like, my favorite TV show of all time*, so I think this book works for me on those counts as well. So if something like that sounds good to you, you should give this one a try when you are in the mood for some Sapphic regency romance.
* I have watched the complete series 3x and I NEVER REWATCH TV shows. Ever.
