If you love heroines, like I do, that are intelligent, resourceful, plucky & and multi-talented, you will thoroughly enjoy Lady Patience Kendall, and the story about her trip on a ship from America to London and her adventures on the trip and in London, you will greatly enjoy reading this story titled: Sea Scoundrel. You will discover many intriguing happenings, both good and bad along the way. Not the least of which is the fascination of Patience and her 4 Angels with the mysterious Marquess of Andover.  If you know anything of the superstitions of those early Sailors regarding having women on board and how it was considered bad luck, you will love how this author started out with these Sailors being no different at the beginning, but she intricately wove the many incidents along the way, so that in the end they thanked their lucky stars that they had them on their ship.  But the main story, and the delicious part, was the growing romance between Patience and Captain Grant St. Benedict, who at times couldn't decide if they loved or hated the other one!  And how their each individuals storied past had construed false impressions of the marriage state, so they both hated the thought of being tied down in marriage.  From about the middle of the book I was cheering them on, hoping each encounter would finally be the one to push them over that hurdle....into marriage.  But, you will have to read it yourself to discover the outcome, which I would highly recommend that you do!
