Loving Sarah is an adventure taking place on the Atlantic Ocean aboard a racing schooner.  The leads in this tale are both likable and have restless spirits that find peace with each other.Lady Sarah is not a typical society miss, she craves excitement and when she discovers her brother by marriage, Lucky, and his best friend Ian Ross-Mackeever are sailing their own ships across the ocean to New York and back she slips out of her house to sneak aboard Lucky’s vessel.  She mistakenly stows away on Ian’s ship and when Ian discovers her, he is too far out to sea to take her back to England and still win the race.Sarah is more than happy to be on Ian’s boat, she finds him fascinating and she falls in love with him as they cross the ocean.  Ian is guarding his heart. He has what can only be described as a distrustful and toxic relationship with his grandfather.  He is almost waiting for the man to die so he can move on with his life.  Sarah understands the importance of family and she longs to be a peacemaker between Ian and his clan.Because the two have been without a proper chaperon, Ian feels the need to marry but Sarah is against it and this is probably the weakest section of the story.  Sometimes a protagonist can be a little too modern for the time period and here is where Sarah has 21st century attitudes toward marrying the man she loves.  Despite that one hiccup in the plot this story is a good one.
