I have now decided to read the series in the correct order and hope for a better experience. It was after I read this book I was advised not to read prequels but read books in the order they were written to get a better experience. I also think that because I didn’t find any of the characters really likable, It affected my experience. It was an interesting story no doubt but I found some places stretched thin and it didn’t hold me down like I expected it to. I think my expectations were a bit too high considering the author’s reputation as a romance writer and I was disappointed.
The story covers Poppy’s experience on her voyage to Portugal and the unexpected happenings as they arrive at Portugal but when she eventually finds her way back to England, she realizes she has lost her heart to Andrew. This is where she meets Andrew, the handsome captain who seems more like a gentleman to Poppy than a privateer.
In what seemed like a dream, Poppy discovers a cave with treasure, then is kidnapped by pirates or privateers as they like to call themselves then finds herself on a ship sailing for Portugal. Poopy Bridgerton is naturally fierce and adventurous having grown up alongside 4 brothers and it is with this spirit she ditches her maid who was supposed to chaperon her on her daily walk along the beach that caused her undoing.
I then realized that there was also a prequel series of 4 books so I thought to begin with the prequel first. With the buzz around the new TV series “The Bridgertons”, I decided to read the series of books first before I watch the series.
