Her Seafaring Scoundrel by Sophie Barnes


Her Seafaring Scoundrel

The Crawfords Series by Sophie Barnes Publication Date: April 28, 2020 Genres: Adult, Historical, Romance
The last thing she wants is a husband… Least of all one determined to win her heart… Lady Cassandra has no desire to marry. But when Captain Devlin Crawford brings scandal to her doorstep and offers salvation, she cannot say no. Not with her daughter’s future at stake. So she decides to accept Devlin’s offer, provided he agrees to never being intimate with her. For although Cassandra is drawn to Devlin, she refuses to dishonor the memory of her one true love. Devlin knows he’s made a mess, but now that it’s done, marrying Cassandra doesn’t seem like the worst idea in the world. Far from it, though it will take serious effort on his part to convince her of this. Especially since she’s never stopped mourning the man she was meant to marry over a decade ago. So once they set off on a grand ocean voyage, Devlin embarks on his greatest adventure yet – the wooing of his wife.

My Review
5 Stars
  Her Seafaring Scoundrel by Sophie Barnes is book Three in The Crawfords Series.  This is the story of  Devlin Crawford and Cassandra Moor.  This book can be a standalone book, but this is such a great series you might not want to miss the previous books.  Cassandra seemed to have had one great love about 13 years ago but he died before they could be married leaving her with a daughter.  Cassandra has went on to raise her daughter and work with her friends to help women in children in need.  Now with Penelope around 12 years old, Cassandra still has not moved on from her past relationship.  Devlin life is on the sea but comes home to his family when he can to has short visits.  This time when he comes home he finds at his brother's house his mother along with Cassandra.  Devlin's mother wants a party while he is in town.  Cassandra of course is a ruined women, so she doesn't attend parties but is talked into this one given by her friend.  Devlin has always admired Cassandra, so when he overhears some old biddies talking about about Cassandra he informs them she is to be his wife.  Of course that sets in motion for them to marry but now Devlin's biggest challenge is winning over Cassandra.  Luckily, Devlin has a helping hand with Penelope.  The cherry on top of this great read was the epilogue.  Loved their story!
