Postponing her London debut to join her cousin and best friend in America, Judith Malory meets deckhand Nathan Tremayne, an undercover smuggler who would escape a death sentence. "James Malory sets sail for America to honor a promise he made to his in-laws: His and Georgina's daughter, Jacqueline, will have her come-out in America. Judith and Jacqueline Malory are not simply cousins; they are inseparable best friends. Refusing to miss Jacqueline's come-out in Connecticut, Judith convinces her parents to let her delay her London debut by a few weeks so she can accompany her cousin. Neither girl intends to fall in love during her first Season. But Judith's plans are overturned when aboard ship she comes face-to-face with the ghost who has been haunting her dreams. Unknown to the Malorys, deckhand Nathan Tremayne is a smuggler with a noose around his neck. Determined to carry out a covert mission in America that could gain him a pardon, Nathan senses that beautiful Judith Malory is trouble. Somehow the minx knows his secret--and now she's blackmailing him into doing her bidding. While passions can soar on the high seas, Nathan knows this aristocratic beauty is merely amusing herself with a scoundrel like him. When the unthinkable happens in Connecticut and the elder Malorys' hands are tied, Nathan takes command of a dire situation. Captaining his own ship, he turns the tables on Judith, as he steers them into some intense Caribbean heat where he will fight with all his mettle to win the right to her heart" --… (meer)

Good old romantic story. Adventure, intrigue, and of course, slight miscommunication that our love birds have to overcome.

I didn't realize this is the latest in a long series of books. I thoroughly enjoyed it and have decided I am going to go back to the beginning so that I can learn about the colorful characters who are now doting parents to our young heroine.

Good story flow. A couple of unanswered questions but that just makes for nice lead into the next in the series, and I have no doubt there will be a next.

The latest book in the Malory-Anderson series by Johanna Lindsey concerns Judith, the daughter of Anthony and Roslynn from Tender Rebel. Jack (short for Jaqueline, James and Georgie's eldest) is to have a debut season in America, at the insistence of Jack's American uncles. Judith insists on coming along as the two cousins can't bear to be separated, but neither intends to fall in love with an American man. However, neither made any such promises about a man met aboard the ship.
Nathan Tremayne, former noble, and very recently engaged in the profession of smuggling, has gained employment on James' ship in order to follow rumors regarding the theft of his own ship and hopefully regain ownership of it. Judith finds herself drawn to this man who is not quite as rough as the other shipboard employees, but not quite as elegant as her noble family.
Another sweet shipboard romance in this series, riddled with the same kinds of miscommunication, misunderstandings, and failure to spill "secrets" )which would make everything okay and cause less hurt and heartache) as the rest of the proceeding books. I nitpick, but I also love this family and will continue to read anything this author continues to write about them. After more than 20 years, I feel like they're my friends. ( )

3 stars. I was hoping for something more original. It just seemed like a combination 3 or 4 other books in this series. I hope the next book in the series is more original. ( )

An enjoyable historical romance with a good plot that started out strong and had an exciting finish but it was kind of slow in the middle. It was nice reading about a new generation of Malory's. Nathan is on a mission for his jailer when he hires on a Malory ship that includes Judith who is going to America for a season.
