For as long as he could remember, Harrison Trent wanted to captain his own ship and enjoy adventures on the high seas. Now a merchant captain of his own ship, the adventures are sadly few. Upon his return to London, he finds himself at a crossroads and not certain what he wants, when the cry of a child brings him face to face with the most delightful woman he has ever met.
Miss Perdita Valentine is happy with her lot in life. She’d been raised in a loving family and now she was in London working in a foundling home where she is able to care for children who had been orphaned just as she. She could not imagine her life being any different until a handsome captain delivers a child to their doorstep. However, after a threat to her life, Perdita soon learns that not all is what it seems. Not even her past.
Unfortunately, the only person she can trust is a confirmed bachelor who has stolen her heart but he might be forced to abandon her to face a dragon of a duchess.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars -
I did enjoy this story. Perdita's love for children, loyalty to her employer, and her strength made her a wonderful character. Her life got upended by Harrison and a past family secret. Harrison was trying to figure out his life and future when he met Perdita. He was so drawn to her that it did not help with his dilemma. This book was a good read, though I felt it was a bit drawn out with Harrison's inability to make a quick decision about his future.
I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
