Description
In this exhilarating new novel of romance and intrigue, New York Times bestselling author Jane Feather tells the tale of an adventurous young woman and the hardened spy who is unexpectedly--and most inconveniently--captivated by her....Independent and inquisitive, Meg Barratt wants nothing to do with any stifling society marriage. Meg yearns for the kind of passion that exists only in books--until a violent storm lands her on the high seas with the most dangerous and seductive man she's show more ever encountered...or imagined.
For Cosimo, women are objects, to be manipulated for business or pleasure...sometimes both. But when the seafaring assassin accidentally kidnaps Meg on his latest mission, he must reconsider his position. Recruiting his unsuspecting captive for the danger ahead is far more challenging than he expected--and far more seductive.

Resolution? What resolution? Instead, we come to a stopping point and simply...stop. I'm almost grateful I didn't come to like any of the characters, otherwise I think I'd be utterly infuriated that I didn't actually find out what happens to them. Or, for that matter, who some of them are.
This is the 2nd book in the Almost Series; we are first introduced to Meg in Almost a Bride the friend of the main character. This story was just as boring as the first book. Meg is taken aboard a ship by mistake while she is unconscious. The book lacks for me any passion between Meg and the captain Cosimo and storyline, which is the main reason for reading. This book is a total dude, and I would never recommend.
